I am their only world

I am a writer... Yes, I read, but I always hear the voices in me... they cry to be set free... released from the prison of my mind so others can walk with them... see them among the living... So many worlds within... so many lands to explore... so many lives in longing... But one day I will open my soul and they'll come walking out... they'll finally be free... Sometimes I wonder if I'm mad... these voice grow so loud... they wake me... distract me... haunt me... but I know the answer... I am a writer... and for now, I am their only world... xo

This is haunting... It's like you pried me open and bared my soul... I connect with this piece on so many levels... The voices speak of longing, of passion, of far away lands, of monsters, of magic, of pain...Sometimes a faint whisper, other times a feral scream... "and for now, I am their only world".... I LOVE this!!

Oh wow, that depicts the mind of a writer so perfectly. The voices, the worlds envisioned, the desire to lay down your imagination to have another step inside and experience it. This piece was spot on and written with such elegance, you talent abounds with such brilliant insight, well done!

You understand well, my dear friend. I know you do. Yes, there is never silence in my mind.. only ever voices wanting me to set them free... A beautiful madness...
