Who I write for

You are who I write for,

who I think of,

who I compare to,

when I write.

 

You are the audience,

the critic,

and the protagonist

in my stories.

 

You are found,

when meaning is buried,

and when truth

is elusive.

 

You are my thoughts epiphany,

the kiss in my passion,

the seducation in my eyes,

and the guilt in my stomach.

 

You are the ink in my pen,

the keys on my keyboard,

and the punctuation

in my grammar.

 

You are the author,

the director,

the producer,

and I am the actor

 

playing your part.
