Writer

You ask what one word defines me?

Not possible to say.

I cannot describe myself in one word,

there is no way.

It is no way possible I can describe myself in one word.

Unless I made it up, a new one, that no one has ever heard.

I cannnot sing, I cannot rap, and I am not good at sports.

I have horrible rhythm and I am pretty short.

I guess that erases musician and WNBA player off the list.

How can I describe myself in one word, when the word does not exist?

I can give you one sentence,

if you will take that instead.

At the end of the day,

I am just someone who likes to express herself using lead.

It is no way I could make it through the day,

without paper and pen.

I always need them to air out my thoughts,

from within.

Rather I am ranting about my day,

or creating fictional characters for a book or a play.

The need to write is just something I cannot ignore,

even though most people think I am lame or a bore.

It does not bother me, what they think.

Nothing does, as long as I have my ink.

I guess I can describe myself in one word, now that I have thought about it.

I am a writer and there is no doubt about it.

I love writing and I cannot live without it.

Writer, that is the word I can use to describe myself.

Hopefully, one day it will bring me some wealth.

Rather it does, or does not would not bother me.

Because I am a writer,

and there's nothing else i would rather be.
