I am a writer
I write
so as to explain what can not be explained
expressing great things through small words

I write

as I write I paint my voice
and make projects of what should have been

grand poem... you hit the definition of a writer to the T.. lovely words
Cool piece. Love the ending. The way you "justify" your thought process is great, very similar has I think in this respect. The paint my voice line is wonderful. Discernment and Unraveling- love the way that plays out in our writing and in the processes we use to release the writing out. Great job here, Thanks
Those sound like good reasons to me!
YES!
I recently read a quote by Joan Didion, she said she writes so she can know what's she's thinking.
Here's to unravelling...
an attempt to discern the capital letters of life (in lower case) ha love it...write on writer, cause you write well...love that you write for the ones that can not read you...tight
Absolutely love the way you use the imagery to describe what writing means to you
Great verse, we all write for some reason or another, like that your write for those that cannot read you and lower case at the end was great.
I am writer, Heard me loud.
Love the last nail: unravel the capital letters of l.i.f.e...
we write because we have to....codewarriors of l.i.f.e.
nice form for the poem, too.
nice piece...enjoyable read.
this sounds very familiar.. writing is also some kind of therapy as well..unriddling life with a pen in hand..bandaging wounds with black ink..lots of good reasons to write on... and we do..smiles
This poem flows beautifully. I love the message - can relate. I particularly enjoy the imagery of "unravel the capital letters of l·i·f·e". Well done.
There is a beauty and a calmness to this piece that allows me to reflect. Beautifully done!

Love that you write for the ones that cannot read you-lovely!
..."the capital letters of l i f e"....this is beautiful Dulce....spoken from a true poet!
You've captured why a writer keeps going at it. At least why I do: a bit of therapy and an attempt to understand life, to let it come to me in unbidden words.
Some really nifty lines in this one Dulce--especially that fourth stanza, though I like it all. If you get those letters figured out, let us know.
Indeed, as others say, you get the gist of what it means to write, need to write.
I love the line, "I write for those who cannot read me and never will" - Definitely a favorite here. And, I agree with all the other sentiments, too. The need to write is deep, so write on!
Beautifully written, writer. :D I love the visual you created with your spacing on the page.
If any ever doubted you as writer, Dulce, that time has ended. It is almost as you've grown up in this post. I read it several times, and truly, it is really 'good shit'.
Doubt dispelled, the proof is in the lines and between. When you finally discern and unravel the capital letters of small life, please post what you found.
Surely others, like me, are in that same search. But you explain the unexplainable, Dear Dulce.
NEVER stop writing again...
Love and PEACE!
Great poem, defines the poet perfectly!
Nicely done, Dulce!
...I'm glad you write, too :) Terrific poem!
Many are the reason we write...I especially love and relate to the reason in your last stanza. Nicely put.
Oh all the Dulce "mes" I've met
This one today is my favorite yet.
But wait -- no that cannot be
EVERY Dulce is a sweetie to me!
xoxo
And LOVING your yummy coffee / laptop new header.
And you know what.... here are 6 more for you.....
xoxoxo
:)
:)
This should be dedicated to us all as we, each in our own small way, release the words that are ours.
Beautifully captured and expressed, Dulce.

you write because you are a writer, absolutely. For those who read you or never will, you remain a writer and a very good one, I may add
most excellently stated!
