How many times must I listen?
How long must I wait for a story to come to my mind?
I like to write fiction,
I want to be kind,
But a story is not a story until a character dies.
Reality doesn't understand me,
Doesn't hear my cries.
Don't you see?
Age doesn't define my creativity,
I can write a chapter or two,
With the protagonist in captivity.
And as if on cue,
The hero comes through,
And saves the protagonist from the antagonist.
Although I am new to this,
The protagonist feels bliss,
Right before their life is changed forever.
