I want to be a writer
Make words dance on the page
I want to touch a million hearts
No matter what the age
I want to say some things
In a way have not been heard
I want my readers engrossed
And hanging on every word
The feeling it would give me
To be told I helped a soul
Would mean much more to me
Than a chest that’s full of gold
I want to be a writer
One that people can relate
One who leads away his readers
From contempt, evil and hate
I want my words to matter
To make a person think
I want them to be clear, concise
Imaginative and succinct
Tell me, if I were a writer
Would you read my written tale?
Would you tell me how I touched you
And helped you to prevail
Strong!
