I don't know if this is what you meant, but I've recently been noticing that there are people in art who create because they can and they have skill, and there are those who create because they need to express what is burning in their hearts and minds. This made me think of that.

It takes a true writer to write with a pen, anyone can write with pain. Wonderful write! Tyfs!!!

Sometimes the best poems are short and sweet. This definitely falls in that category. :)

Some of the best art comes from pain. Unfortunate. But, c'est la vie

My glass must be half empty because I think all poets write with pain. Nice poem. Got me to thinking!

Some write with the essence, of their very soul. With poetry as a platform to grow and with time letting go.
