The Secret Behind Writing

 


Dear writers,

The more I write the more I find out that a lot is still in me that I should write about

The more I write the more I see that my life won't be enough for me to pen down all that I have

Every time I write I see reasons why I should never stop

I want that soul who will pick my work to read

Let him see my soul from every line that he reads

Let him understand my perspective about life in the  next 100 years that he will stumble on my wall.


I don't write for today, I write for tomorrow

I don't write for you alone, I write to myself.

I write better than I speak because in my writing I pour my soul to bring life and hope and to say those words you couldn't expressed.

I want you to smile at every work of mine that you read

With goosebumps all over you 

Wondering how was I able to read your mind

Leaving you with a wish to meet me in the sky

That when you speak you will always put me in your words.

I die everytime I write, I resurrect anytime I write. To me, writing is life and Death 


I run away from people to find time with my thoughts, 

I dwell in dark places because that is when my soul shines

In my conversations, I talk for fun and to change ideologies about me that I don't talk

Leave me inside a room with a book and my blood will be the ink I will use to inscribe those letters to be read.

Leave me in the middle of the night and see how perspectives about life are birthed.


I understand codes in the land of the living

I understand silence in the land of the spirit

I can rewrite history and I am doing it mentally

I only consider weaker vessels who write to me about suicide

So I put them first and I put my views behind


Let your writing bring life and not death

Let your writing change the world positively

That work can be the reason someone is living

That work you've hidden for long can be the reason we lost that soul

That unwritten work could be the reason why they are still evil

Put that pen down and write.

However, what do you write?


Yours Truly
