The Writer's Burden by Bamibor: 10:58am On Nov 15, 2019 |
The writer's burden To paint the mangle And live all the weariness To wear the pain and loss Share the joy and happiness Uneasy concoction for the soul Like the earth under every weight So too the writer must bear his fate Words, like tides beating against the mind Solitude, crowd, none has an antidote The cure is itself the ailment To tell the tales even when it hurts To be the eyes and ears for all And not be in the picture at all The burden, the freedom The battle with folly and wisdom The writer, his words, his heart. Like a sword sharpened for art The writer's burden with words Only the heart and the ink knows P.S. I have been away from this section for awhile I hope I can participate more and drink in beautiful writings as used to be in times of yore. |
