Every day I feel the flames burning
I, therefore, won't stop writing.
The closer and closer it comes,
The deeper and further my mind roams.

Every now and then I hear screams
Emitting deep from within my core.
I believe it's the soundtrack to my dreams,
The caveat that drives me to do more.

Every once in a while comes an inspiration
From whence I know not and I care not.
The poet in me sees this as a benediction
I, therefore won't sit to see this go to rot.

Every once in a lifetime comes a writer
Born blessed with an unorthodox style.
Therefore the poet in me says brother,
Writing is your life, go the extra mile.
