Just because their art puts emotions to the test?

Just becasue their art is sincere and true,
dosen't mean writing can save someone like you.

They scream and they whine for their wish,
and they're basically saying I write cuz Im selfish.

Look at me! They ryhme, writing to be heard.
Changing their feelings to a thought or a word.

Now watch my emotions become a bird,
As I write my feelings in the shape of a dove.

As I scribble out my plead for ever lasting love.

Why does that impower us and make feel good?
Make us feel better to be understood?

They scratch in a book a problem of theirs,
hoping that someone, somewhere cares.

And i find it ironic that I write an complain,
that i ***** about people who write out their pain.

Becuase it is me who has tasted the poet's kiss,
cuz it is my pencil thats writing,
I am selfish.

Sometimes it's pain, but not always. It's often the motivation for getting started anyhow. Nice write! Cheers!
