When does a writer stop writing?
When do the stories end?
And the dreams cease to appear
The visions erased
The passion non-existent
When does a writer finally quit
Give up
And put it all behind them
When does a writer
Put down their pen or pencil
When do they come to a point
Where there’s nothing else to write about?
Will there ever be a time
When we can’t find anything to write about
Is the world that limited
When do you run out of paper?
Or thoughts, or feelings
Why do people stop writing?
If it is your true wish to become a writer
Then what is stopping you from becoming a writer?
Why do you let your lovers, friends, or even family
Talk you into something not you
Or you let your job or financial problems
Stop you from what you want to do
If writing is your passion, if it frees you
Then nothing should stop you
From the talent and passion for writing that completes you
No matter what I do, I will always keep writing
It is my true dream, my true talent and passion
And only God can take it away
So until I’m taken like bait from a hook
I will always, forever more
Be writing in my notebook
False. Not even God can take it away.
Since when do you believe in the man upstairs?
Yep…I used to write everyday…then one day I just stopped. I had 10 years worth of journals and lost them in a basement flood. My boss gave me a beautiful leather journal for my birthday and that got me going again…but the drive wasn’t as strong.
I think writing has a very important place in culture…as someone must live to tell.
Maybe when we die we stop writing, or maybe we continue upon our next journey if there so happens to be one.
But what about; When someone dies, and the children see the work of their peer and pick up where they stopped? I can think of many times where the predecessor had to finish up a piece written by someone after he/she died.
So in a way, some writers may never die…
i couldn’t agree more! I never thought of that. nice comment indeed…
