WRITE?
Write?
So I am to write
A Poem, of all plights!
I, who can't create even if I were God!
A discreet, introvert little lad
Why? I ask
Should I bring this undue strain?
Upon myself like the pouring rain?
Is it for fame? Iis it for shame?
Should I take part in such a game
Racking my brain day in day out
Searching for stuff to write about
Am I inspired yet?
No, I better wait
For that moment that is perfect!
All these "writers" have dreamt about
Why should I write when I can talk?
Causing those words run amuck?
I'm no writer, I've never been
Can't miss a place you've never seen.
"Writers are born, never made!"
Echoed the words inside my head.
And then one day I sat alone
Thinking about where life had gone
I often did in pensive mood
Staring blank eyes all glued
Began forming words and phrases
And feeling them with all my senses
"This is it", I said
"What kept me up laying in bed
The muse, that elusive muse,
All good writers are bound to use"
Started to write with joyous laughter
And all the passion I could muster
I realized then we are all writers
We just need to put those words to papers
CHEREKA
