I have always been a writer.
When I was younger
I thought my ability to write
Was finite. I thought
My creativity would dry up
Like a pond in summer.
Now I realize the number
Of stories you write is not limited
To the number of pages you have
Or the amount of ink in your pen.
Creativity is the wind around us:
Although you can never really catch it:
You feel its presence on your skin
Even though it's not always present,
It's always certain to return.
I will always be a writer.

I have always been a writer.
When I was younger
I thought my ability to write
Was finite. I thought
My creativity would dry up
Like a pond in summer.
Now I realize the number
Of stories you write is not limited
To the number of pages you have
Or the amount of ink in your pen.
Creativity is the wind around us:
Although you can never really catch it:
You feel its presence on your skin
Even though it's not always present,
It's always certain to return.
I will always be a writer.
