"I'm ready to change the world with my writing..."
Such an arrogant phrase
And still so true.
How it must have felt to be Edgar Allen Poe
How it must have felt to be Shakespeare.
How it must have felt to have so much genius and only be recognized after death...
How it must have felt to be so under-appreciated, to never know the influence you had.
Or the hearts you touched...
Or even if anyone will ever know
what you wrote
what you thought
how you felt
or why you wrote.

Note that I wrote this while being bored in Spanish 2 class, and It may not be the best you've ever read. I'm an amateur... what can I say? Just an Average High School sophomore, and that's it.
