I Am A Writer: An Innate Soul Poem by Mahfooz Ali

I Am A Writer: An Innate Soul

Rating: 5.0


It's like a demon that possesses me,
never letting go
In my mind and my thoughts
With visions and voices telling me to continue on
Telling the masses.
I have my own mind,
my own thoughts
Intriguing, insightful, unprovoked
Telling a tale.
Make believe stories of lies and life
Being true to the difference.
Fear from the voices that sometimes go silent,
Making creative challenges.
I am my own demon.
I have my own voice.
I am a writer.

Wonderfully written and so very true. As Robert Frost said, 'to be a writer is a condition, not a profession'.
