Fanatics in love with
A movie or book, stuck in a
Never-ending world of
Great fan fiction and fan art.
Infected with the feels that make them
Ready to fight for what they
Love, while creating everlasting
Ships.
Why, in the first place, do I write poetry?
Couldn't I simply write a song, or even a story?
Why not write a news article, maybe an informative essay?
Why not write a fairytale that could make someone's day?
Why not make my feelings known verbally?
Why not just tell others how I feel truly?
Why not try to speak out loud, maybe even try to sing?
Why not write a novel, just for the fun it could bring?
Why not simply write a simple and well known fan fiction?
Why not publish an encyclopedia with well-detailed sections?
Why should I write in the first place when I could just as well read?
Why write poetry? Which of it's elements do I actually like and need?
I write poetry, for it shows my feelings with ease,
I write poetry, for I can write whatever I please,
I write poetry, for when I do, I feel like I can rewrite history
All this and more, even—this all is why I love to write poetry.
My Passion 2
My true passion is still for sports, but, I have another passion, a passion for writing.
I love writing, be it poetry, erotic stories, fan fiction, or super heroine stories, or, even blogging, I'm always writing something.
I write when I'm happy, I write when I'm sad, I write when I have nothing better to do, which is pretty much all the time.
Writing is my passion, and, I'm not going to apologize for my passion.
