I want to be a writer

I want to write down everything

I want to collect words and paint them

Like the rainbow in the sky

I want my words to rearrange broken tiles

Can they enhance somebody's life?

I don't want to insert words just because they're there

Or just because they rhyme

I want my words to mean something

And that's the reason why I write

 

I love to write down what I see

What I hear and what I feel

I also love to write what I think someone else may need to hear

Writing is my passion and possibly my life

I was born with pen in hand and so, naturally, I write

 

I want to be a writer

But wait... I already am!
