Maybe i really dont have anything special to say

thats why i’m so afraid to pursue this

or its because i dont believe i will ever succeed

like im just not good enough

and everything everyone ever needed to say has been said

every action and emotion has already been described

from the way a butterflys wings whisper when they flicker

from flower to flower on a springy afternoon

to the way the grass grows green in some places

but dies and fades to brown never to be well again in others

or like the drizzle of syrup as it slowly cascades

down a giant stack of golden brown pancakes

yea – i think im afraid ill have nothing to contribute

nothing original to say and no new thoughts to think

i wont even be able to connect with anybody

because they wont spend more than a minute reading my work

the characters just wont be any good in my fiction stories

and i never learned how to properly write in iambic pantameter

(or whatever that rhyming scheme stuff is called)

i just wont have anything useful or entertaining to say

and ill fall into obscurity as a failure.
