Am I a poet?
I am a poet, I say
But am I truly a poet when I tell you I struggle to pick up my pen?
When in some days writing feels like a chore, a pressure, a heavy burden I force myself to shoulder
When I spend hours writing and re-writing yet still I feel as though my craft is not nearly as good
Am I truly a poet if I tell you that I love yet hate poetry?
Like adoring the rain
yet hiding beneath an umbrella
The pen feels heavy in my hand,
Like an anchor keeping a boat in place,
Yet still I choose to write despite the weight...
But does this make me a poet?
