Behind the Writer

November 30, 2018

Pages.

Pages filled to the brim.

Filled with wonder, filled with splunder, but still I ponder,

If life is worth living tonight.


I write and I write.

Filling people with joy, and hope for the world.

But still I fight on my own each night,

No one to save me as my mind swirls.


“Positive, Bright, a Fighter”

They think so highly of me,

I appear so smiley, you see.

But in reality I’m fighting, myself actually.


The author's comments:

I tend to write for the enjoyment of others rather than myself. This short little poem encases a piece of what goes on in my mind behind all of the writing.
