Everyone’s got their story,
everyone fits a genre.
So, what’s yours?
How does it go?
Has it been tragic?
Have you been fiction?
A comedy or a romantic take?
A fairy tale dreamland?
A mystery, whodunit narrative?
Whatever, it’s what you wrote,
it’s what you've made of it.
You wrote every line
of every page,
each punctuation, verb, and break.
Every sentence came from your pen,
each paragraph, adjective, and end.
Maybe a series of short stories
unable to be drawn out.
Is it so?
If so how come?
Was it asking so much
to see something through?
To tell a story in depth and fulfilled?
Scared to take that risk;
once it gets tough, you’ve had enough!
Whatever, it’s what you wrote,
it’s what you've made of it.
You wrote every line
of every page,
each punctuation, verb, and break.
Every sentence came from your pen,
each paragraph, adjective, and end.
