It's like a demon that possesses me, <br />never letting go <br />In my mind and my thoughts <br />With visions and voices telling me to continue on <br />Telling the masses. <br />I have my own mind, <br />my own thoughts <br />Intriguing, insightful, unprovoked <br />Telling a tale. <br />Make believe stories of lies and life <br />Being true to the difference. <br />Fear from the voices that sometimes go silent, <br />Making creative challenges. <br />I am my own demon. <br />I have my own voice. <br />I am a writer.<br /><br />Mahfooz Ali<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-am-a-writer-an-innate-soul/
