I am the voice of star struck poets,
The call of the enchanted singer,
The vision of the inspired filmmaker,
And the rhythm of bards alike.
What be I, I hear you ask?
I am everything and nothing,
The fate of a million dreams failed,
The destiny of a million more realized.
I am the wind to the sails of time,
The current to the waters of reality.
I am what you fear,
But also what you love.
I am life as you lead it.
I am the song of your stars.
This poem was written by Stewart Storrar, the founder of Lore Publication. With a love for poetry that dates back years into his high school days, Stewart has always been a keen poet as well as a keen creative writer. This poem was originally published by P.S. I Love You, an online medium publication that Stewart has also worked with in the past.
This particular poem by Stewart looks to delve into what makes people create their art, no matter the form, style, or medium. What makes a singer sing? Or a writer write? Is it the desire to know or to be known? Or a desire to share and explore? If you’re a writer, or creator, why do you create?
