Write What You Know

I know that I am a writer.

I know that my goal is to inspire others, and make writers

out of those who don't believe they can.

I know that no matter how many times I feel like I'm falling,

I can pick myself back up again.

I know that I am a strong person, a leader, and a mentor,

I know that writing is my escape and my best friend.

I know that in tough times, I can rely on paper and pen to set me free.

I know that I have been through hardships and struggles

that a lot of people would find difficult.

I know that those struggles have made me the person that I am today.

I know that writing is my faith in this world.

I know that I can do anything, be anything, write anything.

I know that my words will live on in the webs of binary code

that bring you this message to your computer or phone screen.

I know that no matter how small and brief my poems are,

that somewhere, someone is moved by them.

I know that's what makes it all worth it to me.
