Reader-Writer

It had always been a delight to read,

Gliding in and out of different worlds,

And the complete engrossment in a universe

Only she knew existed,

But writing was a nightmare!

Not because she didn’t want to,

Not because she hated it,

But because it was a dream

That would demand more from her,

One that would awaken her inner battles

And force her to face her demons;

 The inconsistencies, complacencies, procrastination,

Like being thrust in a ring with a nemesis

That would require years of training to defeat,

Yet she knew conquering these looming monsters

Would mean much more to her

Than she could ever imagine,

A reader-writer,

One with mastery in this game of intellect and heart,

Equipped with the power of completeness and wholeness

Like two sides of a coin,

One side complimenting the other,

So it was time to make that dream a reality,

To fight that good fight,

And soar above the clouds in diverse dimensions

Yet to be discovered.
