I write to suffer I write to feel I write when I think That nothing is real I write when I'm down, And alone in my bed I write out the thoughts Buzzing in my head I write out of fear I write out of love I write out of heartache To the spirits above I write when in pain, Sometimes for joy I play with each word As if it were a toy I write some blank pages I write on my skin I just write all over My soul within Written with blood Carved into stone Listing my sins So I may atone I write in poetry I write in prose I write when I'm nothing, When my emptiness grows I write to exist, And to disappear I write when envelop

So you wanna write huh? You got your pen/ keyboard ready? well slow down there because the first rule of writing is to think. Well screw that the first rule is to have inspiration, you need inspiration? Sit down at your tv watch your favourite tv show/movie or go read your favourite book, try and figure out why you like such and such genre and what parts you like about it. Yes it's copying but that's what writing is about, it's about taking things you like and putting them into your own plot. Ever heard of the book "A hero with a thousand faces?" there are only so many plots out there what's important is to mould it into your own creation. H
