Writing vs Poetry
If being a good writer means you just write
Anything that you can perceive,
Then my page would be flooding
In poems everytime I have
A time to write.
But there is more in poetry than mere writing;
It is about the capture of that moment
And that feeling which only happens
Once in a lifetime
In order to preserve it through words.
Being good in writing
Is not synonymous with
Being a good poet.
For a good writer may only write
Based on perceived facts
But a poet makes a masterpiece.
The output of poetry
Depends on the condition
Under which one writes.
So, there are times when he is fast
And there are times when he is slow.
