Find Your Voice

Anyone can write words.

Powder a poem with prepossessing parlance

Making it look good, but have nothing underneath

Just words.

But what makes someone a writer

Is their ability to let their words sing off the page.

To speak for them when they aren’t in the room.

To let the world see into their brain, their heart, their entire being

For just a brief moment.

To show everything underneath,

Not just words.
