Does it hurt to write?
Does it hurt to express?
Does writing deprive of pain?
Does expression encourage the depression?
Enough to vent out the anger
Enough to scream out the rage
Express what gives us happiness
Express what cuases us to smile
This never seems that optimistic
This always seem really negative
That something horrible has to distort the artist
Why drama to influence the creativity?
Why someone has to darken the personality?
Has constantly been brought out of realization
Confusion amongst life so personally
And somehow hurting entitles painful intervention
Too oppress all the pain upon a paper
And use the artistic value that creates expression
Author's Notes/Comments:
Emotional Sacrifice when it comes to writing poetry. Do you have to have emotional events to create good poetry. Does emotional pain have to occur to create.
