The greatest writers in the world
Use the language of simplicity.
I strive to be a beautiful writer
And to pepper the page
With every colour on my pallet.
However like a photograph in grey scale
The most beautiful writings
Come in the most simplistic of forms.
Only once you get through the spew and bravado
Do you begin to find the reasons people turn to words;
For solace.
For companionship.
For honesty.
For memories
And for the confessions of another maladjusted soul.
I still hide sheepishly behind my words
And twist them into a maze
In which I can hide my true intentions
And the reasons why I ***** these blank pages
Every time I find myself alone.

The greatest writers in the world
Use the language of simplicity.
I strive to be a beautiful writer
And to pepper the page
With every colour on my pallet.
However like a photograph in grey scale
The most beautiful writings
Come in the most simplistic of forms.
Only once you get through the spew and bravado
Do you begin to find the reasons people turn to words;
For solace.
For companionship.
For honesty.
For memories
And for the confessions of another maladjusted soul.
I still hide sheepishly behind my words
And twist them into a maze
In which I can hide my true intentions
And the reasons why I ***** these blank pages
Every time I find myself alone.
