Writing For The Love Of It

What do you write about?

Where do you start?

Will an empty canvas

Become a work of art?

Will something small

Be part of something big?

Will you give your all

Putting everything in?

Will the desire show

In the work itself

Or poured into the cup

Of someone else?

Who will work at it

Until they are drained

But keep the focus

Well sustained

Mind and body

So harshly trained

They overcome

The stress and strain

Only then will you in pain

Behold your efforts done in vain

Will you bury

your face in shame

Or do all it takes

To stay in the game?
