I can't write

I'm a writer.

that's what I used to say

I'm a writer.

untill one day I realized

I can't write.

I used let my emotions flow trough my fingers

I felt free to speak the truth

but see the thing is

I can't write.

my sentences are chopy and malformed

I lack vividness and detail

my writting is dull and boring

I feel the story within me, but I'm always gaurded

I can't write.

but....I like it

the same way I like art

the same way i like the rush of terror

I can't write.

but maybe that's okay

okay that I'm not the greatest

okay that I'll never be published

as long as I do what feels best

and isn't that be what writing is all about?

not to be the best

or to gain a great following

just to share bits of yourelf with the world

and hope to be seen buried within your words

and so maybe....just maybe

I'm a writer.

are you?
