The real struggle of a writer can't even be really expressed as the effort and thought that goes into writing is hardly ever recognized by anyone! Let me remind that it is not to insult my beautiful readers but about the the recognition a writing gets compared to a video or audio! A five second reel is recognized better than a writing that takes 5 seconds to read!
So go ahead and read my poem to let me know if you can really relate to what I say!
As a child too I liked writing and reading a lot
But all I did was learn and learn like a bot
Functioned to work as instructed everyday
In the night on the bed exhausted I simply lay
As silly words of a random song mumble on my lips
Even as the I drink the water slowly as tiny sips!
Every moment I live as somebody else
As I know no income comes off my crazy grey cells!
No, the reels and stories don't excite my brain
But it does when I hear the sound of pounding rain!
Immediately I scribble my thoughts on a social platform
And it simply gets ignored like any other google form!
Everybody sees it but nobody really notices all these!
But the views that reels get that are a tease!
Makes every effort of yours seem an utter waste
As you never really understand their taste
When they wiggle with no real thought or meaning
They call it syncing and weirdly a dancing!
But my eyes are sore looking at these steps
My ears are bleeding hearing their tears
As they make a reel even of a silly sneeze
Making my creativity simply forever freeze
Cause your efforts are absolutely nothing
But their nothing in this world is everything!
Are we too stupid just because we write?
Or people supernatural who simply can't diet?
Show the perfect curves! moves and the looks!
A big book worm who dies in weird books!
Nobody is even willing to read what you write!
Only want a judgement if they are great!
But am no singer with great vocals for songs
Am no dancer who likes the fame and enjoy wrongs!
Even the blame they take in stride bringing money
But I find all this silly and stupidly funny!
I guess am totally weird and old generation grandma!
But to go on with my passion I find no more stamina!
I wish I lived in a world where my efforts brought better recognition and income because I struggle with my knowledge and others enjoy their life without as much as struggle as my brain does!
This post isn't to hurt anybody's talent or efforts just an out pour of my agony over the struggle of writing.
