It's been a while Since I've sat down for this long Just to write All the words I can write They call it a stream of consciousness But I call it a stream of truth It's a stream to remember As it glosses over your skin Maybe this truth Will stick around A bit longer than the sunlight A bit longer than the nightlight I don't want my writing to go away I don't want my writing to be forgotten I want my writing to stay I want it to be remembered A writer only ever wants to stay That is the mark of a great writer It's not that hard, to write for a long time It's pretty hard, for that long time of work to stick around But don't worry It's just a stream of consciousness It's not a hard thing to do So we will just keep typing and praying for hamlet To come rolling off our fingers
