Art Musings

To be a writer

To be a writer, means to expose all

All your pain, trauma, and sadness

But also your joy, triumph, and gratitude

To be a writer, means to bare your soul

People don’t connect to letters and words

They connect to the emotion behind those letters and words

To be a writer, means to be brave

Because people will laugh or call you a shame

But, others will applaud and tell you that they relate to your pain

To be a writer, means to help people get better

Just like how you have been getting better with each and every letter
