I Am I

I am passionate about my writing. So think what you want of me... but thats how it is.

I am free as bird

Soaring through poetic clouds

On silent wings

Of my celestial beings

 

I am the creation

The source of a cruel world

Heartbreak and depression

Afraid of my own reflection

 

I am shadow in the night

Stalking chaos, watching

With my eyes wide open

 

Words are my remedy

The cure of my disease

A raging plague that lives on

A passion that dies with me

 

I am my own creation

What the world has made of me

The reason my demons rejoice

Poeticly passionate, my drug of choice

 

I Am I

 

"A bone heals

A bruise fades

But Art is forever"

I really enjoyed this. It was beautiful. A wonderful way to describe your addiction and love for writing. Major kudos.

This is awesome. Sorry it took me forever to come by and read it. Been suffering Readers Block. ugh. This is the most beautiful self-descriptive piece I've read here to date. It's lovely. There's nothing better than embracing who we are.....rock on, sister!! This piece is brilliant! I'd clip and paste the parts that rocked me...but that'd just be the whole piece. : )

Wow. I like this piece a lot. I think that it reminded me a great deal of Ted Hughes' "The Crow." You may be interested in it. The entire piece tells a story about this crow that is called Crow and his existence. It becomes apparent that Crow is just what he is. He is good and evil. He is himself and no other definition can suit him. I think you would get a lot out of this classic work. Check it out sometime!

This is such a wonderful piece. I think it's definitely also relatable to this audience in a community of writers. Normally I'm turned off by rhyming poems, but you were able to pull it off. It doesn't cause a distraction and actually adds to the tone and flow of the poem. Great job!

Beautiful writing! I love how you express yourself! It has taken me a little time to learn to write what I mean, so I happily applaud this!
