We Bleed Ink
We bleed ink.
We...
Draw it out on cryptic paper.
We write it beneath.
Beneath the lines of regular society.
Beneath what you see.
What you believe in.
What you dream of.
Deep in the night.
We bleed ink around it.
Like a shell holding an ancient creature.
Around the possibilities of us.
Of we...flawed human beings.
We bleed ink underneath.
Underneath the teaching of genius minds.
Twisting in the wind like leaves in a future storm.
You warn me.
Warn me not to stray from my soul.
We bleed ink.
Around the sketch of this planet.
Around the sketch of our own meager existence.
We Bleed Ink.

I don't know how I missed this comment of yours my dear...but thank you very much ;) Yes, I too have been writing since a young age. I think there are people who write because they WANT to be writers & people who just ARE writers. Ya know, sleep with paper & a pen next your bed type shit, wake up in the middle of the night & scribble things which will probably be illegible the next day--but you still try to decipher it ! I know you're one of my kind & probably always have a pen & a notebook in your purse in case you feel a little bloodletting coming on ;P

You are so right. I used to read books while hiding in my closet and then write my own stories as I was reading.My best writes come from not thinking about what to say, but just letting it pour out of me. My hearts-blood so to speak...
