A Writer

I used to think a writer is someone I could never become.

But I realized writing doesn’t mean

That everyone has to love it.

There have been times when I really really hated it.

I despised my work and thought about giving up.

But I haven’t.

There are times when I thought my writing would never connect with anyone.

But in some ways, it has.

I’ve learned writing isn’t always something a writer is,

Eager and drooling to get done.

It’s something they might have to push through,

And hope someday, somehow, it might connect to someone.
