To be a true writer
you must give of yourself,
put everything aside
take your emotions off the shelf
With your inner voice as your guide
make the words reflect you,
create something special
that’s magical, elegant and true
Your words invoke feelings
from the reader at the start
love, joy, sorrow and humor
are the things that inspire your art
When you share your prose to the world
for all who want to see,
take delight in knowing
that they’ll get an understanding of “me”
So never question your worth
or the passion that you feel,
Writing is your outlet
that enables you to be real
