Difficult to write
April 5, 2013
It is so difficult…
To write on this piece
Of paper which is so void
Like the washed sky
Clear of the stars and its Moon
It is only that I try
To create vivid pictures
In your budding fantastic mind
With this paper as my canvas
And this pen as my paintbrush
Using the colors that you have
Draining out from your fertile mind
And your soul which makes you realize
The stuff that I tried to create
A painting or perhaps...
An image clicked
By the camera of my soul….

This poem creates a picture for me in my mind (ironically) and i enjoyed the way you compared writing to artwork because it truly is. I can relate to this because writing also brings out the artist in me
