My Pen

"A writer uses a pen instead of a scalpel or blow torch." -Michael Ondaatje

My pen is on the paper,

And it never wants to leave,

It looks into my deepest thoughts,

And shows off the real me.

My pen is everywhere I go,

It speaks about where I want to be,

My pen is bold,

My pen is clever,

My pen is part of me.

My pen was my first love,

And will always be,

My truest and the greatest,

Because my pen is me.

I love this. I cannot even pick a favorite line or verse. The whole thing just... is me; how I feel about writing. Amazing read, and it flowed so easily.

Oh, this was a clever poem. I love the ending and the way you put it together. Great flow and great creativity. Awesome job.
