I compose,
While others doze,
Keeping my demons at bay.
The more I write,
The less I fight,
To remember what to say.
Penning verse,
Verbose or terse,
Anxieties allay.
I will strive,
To stay alive,
And last another day.
“The most difficult and complicated part of the writing process is the beginning.” ~ A. B. Yehoshua
