Write Until I Am Void

Because I don't want to realise one day that it was all for nothing. That all the days I spent hunched over notebooks pouring my feelings out All the hours I used my pen to empty the contents of my head All the minutes I tried to instill power and emotion in every word I wrote or spoke Was for my fortress to crumble at the slightest touch Of reality. So until the day I will have to wake up from my daydream The day I tear up and forget every poem, story and song to at last grow up I will write. Write until there is no more to say. Write until my heart is too empty to give anything more. Write until my eyes know nothing but words and letters and lyrics. Write until my soul is built only of my poetic illusions. Write until I am void of everything. I will write.
