To everyone who believes
Have faith in your work
Admire the hearts of others
Never quit, always strive
Keep God first

You are self-made
Outstanding and omnipotent
Understanding and foregoing

THANK YOU
Just wanted to thank everyone in a different way.
house.
dormitory.
lodge.
apartment.
duplex.
hotel.

all places to call home.

none of these feel like a home to me.

     my home is wherever you are.

your welcoming arms,
your loving touch,
and your greeting; a gentle forehead kiss;;

create a home.

My home is wherever you are.

Wherever you are to welcome me in, hold me tight, and kiss me gently.

Feeling safe is what creates a home, and you are my home.
I'm suicidal
I have thought about it not only once or twice but thrice
I'm suicidal
I have written hundreds, thousands and millions of letters
I'm suicidal
I'm a danger to myself
I'm suicidal
I see no fun in living.

The time we spend on
Blank pages and paper
Is like throwing money
Into empty spaces.
Minds racing and clocks ticking
Pen on paper
Fingers on home row keys.
Scrolling and spacebars
Ink and led.
FOCUSED....
The next thought
Is the next word
Pronouns, adjectives, verbs
Periods, commas, question marks.
Proofreading and backspacing
Fiction or fact
Intensity and excitement
Intelligence kicking in.
All day long phrase catching
All night long remembering
I can do this,  I can do this
I will finish what I started.
Brainstorming vs distractions
Silence vs noises
FOCUSED.....
Speaking without talking
The passion of your work
A thousand pages
A million words
Pen down
Typing ends.
Time to rest
The body and mind,
It's done....but
More on the way.
Results, two thumbs up
We think
We work
We spend time
We fill up pages
We....WE ARE WRITERS
This is something that every writer should be able to relate or anyone in a profession that requires this. This is what we do.

I write this poem
To all human beings
Who are like me

Wherever on this earth
You may be

Maybe you don't believe
In God
Or maybe you do

But you are good like me
And just try to make it through

You smile sometimes
And show love
To your fellow man

Upon the rock
Of ages I do stand

Talk of transhumanism
Posthumanism too

I'm so simple
I just live by
Do unto others
As you would have
Them do unto you

Holy Holy Holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Heaven and earth
Are full of his glory

I'm writing
With my life
I'm writing a story

I just think maybe one day
I will have a female companion
To love
But if not that's okay

I have a friend
I met on here

And I send my love freely
To her on this day

And I'm not afraid
To say
Elsa I care about you, mmkay?

Hip hip hooray

And to the rest of the poets here
I care about you too

Just look...
At All the beautiful writing

We do!
