“Be careful what you pretend to be because you are what you pretend to be.”

I acted like a writer.  
Put pen to paper.
Agonized over plot line.  
Fretted over character development.
Looked for names with meaning.   
I spent time in the form of hours, days, weeks and years.  
There was a time I acted like a friend. 
I reached out to you. 
Listened to woes and joys. 
 Celebrated your success 
and prayed during your struggles.
Today I still do.  
 
 
I like how you expanded on the quote with your poem. I love Kurt Vonnegut!
ReplyDeleteAwesome Vonnegut quote.
ReplyDelete"Looked for names with meaning." Yep. I do that all the time.
Loved it!
ReplyDeletePutting pen to paper is torture... I use pencil so I can erase what I don't like. :)
