Writing new vocabulary words that you can use in an everyday sentence
Writing, writing catchy phrases that’ll make you sound much more sophisticated
Writing, a special quote that’ll make a difference to our descendants
Writing to the point where you let your mind run on its own, and your opinions are hated
After all, isn't that what poetry is?
Being lost in your imagination, yet standing firmly on the Earth's surface
Using every word you’ve learned since day one, and letting go of all your emotions
But you still must watch what you say because it makes others feel nervous
We should feel safe to share how we feel, but can’t let our opinions go off in an explosion
I just want more recognition, I don’t want to be an “exception”
I’m not trying to be picky, what I write isn’t exactly what I mean
It’s pretty hard to grab the audience's attention
I’ll just wait in line, because we all just want to be seen
It’s hard to seem worthy
We get the stage to ourselves on every leap day
Sharing our personal things and worries
We all have something to say
So many authors, so many stories, then my poem's underneath this
People will only get to read what I have to say on certain conditions
After all, it’s not like anyone will actually read this
It’ll just get buried under “recent submissions”
