A friend asked me how to be a writer. I wanted to say, lock yourself in a room, scream until you have a poem and no voice. Open your veins and bleed until you know that your bones are pure words and sorrow. Act as if you slit your own throat and all you can bleed are your own regrets and all of the darkness you boxed up for inspiration. Write your mom a letter, tell her you're leaving and you won't be back for awhile Because being a writer is traveling through all seven layers of Hell and denying anything is wrong. Forget loving yourself when all you have is a pen and paper fused to your wrist and Jesus is tapping at your skull saying turn back now. Warn the neighbors that if they smell burning It's just your soul clawing at the front door trying to get in. Learn how to be alone. Learn how to lose everything you have in order to feel release, learn how to only feel deceased from now on. A friend asked me how to be a writer. All I said was don't
Every person have diffirent approach to became a writer. There is one scheme what should be follow. You desrcibe seven layes of hell but don't forget on heavens too. We need all absorb not just dirt but also clean. When you write jusat write let it pen do writing . Be opewn to new ideas and old ones make more better. Be writer is not means to became mad. But to observe own self and whole world. Mix reality and fantasy and don't forget drink few drops of your ecthasy .
This piece is absolutely, positively, impossibly, incredibly, AMAZING. Never have I ever in 14 years of my life read something so true while also have so much feeling, without being boring or flavorless. And to top it all off it's also one of the most easily related poems I have come by, I give this a 10/10. Weeeeeeell done.

As always you never fail to impress me, or any of us lucky readers for that matter. For some of us writing is this exact process, some of us have it worse. You accurately described the mental fortitude and pain someone goes through when trying to place emotions into words. Life is hell, putting it into this creative work is revisiting that hell, willingly. Thank you for explaining this process for those who don't know what it's like
I loved the way you expressed yourself..This is your first writing that I am reading but I must say you are indeed a good writer and I loved this one..
Keep on writing...
Lately I have been feeling very lost, and it is comforting to come here and rediscover pieces of who I was and who I still must be
