Cheat.
It's simple.
Place the pencil
To the page
And write the words
You've so recently
Been in a loss for.
They're expecting you.
Expectation of the written word,
The pressure of new
and (hopefully)
everlasting possibilities.
You cheat when you write
about writing.
When words are in a loss
for a pen,
Cheat
And you reach
the expectations
they expect you
to meet.
Cheat
And pretend that
You still love to
Write.
Cheat.
And maybe they'll
still like you
hope for you
Write to you,
And pray you
didn't make them
Cheat.

I feel like this everyday. Through this poem you not only produced a well written piece but revealed a simple truth.
