Writing
Writing, writing, what is there to say
To create happiness and spawn dismay
To raise kingdoms, countries, cities
To burn them to the ground with no pity
To create love and break hearts
To form alliances and tear them apart
Your thoughts spilled out of your head
Letting go of your panic and dread
To get lost in your imagination
Your soul, your creation
Writing is a savior
Freeing authors from their normal behavior
Writing is life and death
Strife and clean breaths
Writing is the true window to the soul
The ultimate kind of freedom
Writers can be young or old
And any curious soul can read them
Writing never ends
Nor does it begin
