The Writer (1-25-2022)

They've seen my name,
Once or twice,
On the screen of their computer.

"She's the girl who runs around,
Just for the newspaper."

I'm known around as an author,
The girl who writes a lot.

My friends know I write sad stuff,
Happy stuff? Not as much.

They tell me my writing is good,
Others say it's great.

A lot of the time,
There's a question asked;
"Are you really okay?"

I say that yeah, I'm fine,
And the conversation is done.

But all these pieces that hit their hearts,
Are the way I let my emotions run.

Yes, I am okay.
Yes, I cry a lot.
Yes, my writing can hurt.
Yes, I write all my thoughts.

I don't say a lot in school,
I save all my thoughts for later.
Whether it's online or in a journal,
All of my emotions and feelings end up on my paper.

That's my poem lol.
I posted the other ones in my 'From Feelings to Thoughts to Stories' book lol.

(The other ones are called 'Ignoring the Red Flags', 'Anxiety', and 'Two Sides of a Story'.)
