Suffer

He says
I have
to stop
writing

My artist
hands are
cramping

But you
have to
suffer for
your art

So feel
the burn
and ache
of poetic
creation

By Samantha Campbell

Author's Note

Sometimes when that engine running there's no stopping. When those words are restless you have to catch them what they say.

I enjoyed this immensely. I know opinions may differ, but I find your concise, heartfelt writing far more pleasurable to read than your work loaded with dark motifs. Keep it up.

Writing is like making your own personal TV, you can watch whatever you want and make it go however you want it to go.

Indeed, if we are to become gifted at our art, we have to sacrifice and suffer. Even poets need to practice their art. Great write, love the style.

A lot of times it takes that burning desire to produce a great poetic creation. You've displayed that well here. Great job. :)
