The Writer

The Writer

Written by Adam M. Snow

In a sea of words, 

where writers drown, 

lost in their world's 

insanity; their own 

blood's their ink.

Time has no limits, 

being lost within thoughts; 

a blank mind's their demise.

The writers they write,
escaping this nightmare -
the fear that is reality.
The blood they shed
is the words they dare dream;
the flowing of the ink, now empty.

This is a great poem I love how it really explains the benefits of writing. You say we can get lost in our thoughts and I love how you say writing offers us the opportunity to escape from reality. It's so true that writers block can be the death of us sometimes when we simply can't think of amytuing else to write and as a writer it can be the most frustrating thing in the world. Very nice poem!

Nothing worse than the blank mind, staring at the blank page... Well said, Adam.
