I don't know how to write a poem


Nobody is born a writer or a poet, Its something which comes within. And I don't know how to write, so I thought why don't I try to learn it! Now,the thing is I don't know how they put fancy words at proper places, neither I am good with famous English phrases. Still I sit down, keep my diary on desk and hold a pen my hand, And that's when my silly brain starts to expand. No what should I write about? The sky? The Trees? My rapidly growing weight? Or maybe I can write about my very recent breakup!!! Nah! They are way too cliche, maybe I can write about how cute my dog looks when he sleeps or when he wiggle his tail and how tender is his tiny bite? Ugh! I really don't know how to write! But I won't stop my brain from seeking ideas, nor I'll tell my heart "honey, you suck at it! Don't try so hard" Instead I'll tell them that"nobody is a born writer", it's something which comes within. I know I have got the power to write and for it I can rip the core of my skin!
