Look at her.

She's got talent.

She's got the people skills everyone wishes they had.

It's so easy for her to talk and engage in conversation

and whenever she does, she always lifts up peoples spirits and brings a smile to their faces.

Everyone feels so comfortable talking to her.

They love talking to her.

And she makes it look so damn easy and effortless.

But when you try to do it.

people ignore you

or give you weird looks.

even though you do EXACTLY the same thing she does.

Look at her.

She's got talent.

She's so good at writing.

She conveys so much emotion in her words.

Her sentences are laced with it.

The images she creates are vivid and clear

it's amazing that it's only symbols on paper.

The characters and scenarios she makes are so real and accurate

The perspective she writes in really connects with the reader.

She's like a master jeweler.

Every bead is a word.

She finds the right texture and shape and color

and string it all together with a special string infused with just the right materials

She puts them all in a pattern

and the Necklace that is her writing is beautiful and priceless

whether is was planned out or not.

She just has an eye for these kind of things.

But when you try to do it,

it doesn't make sense.

The words are repetitive

and the ideas conflict.

The writing is dull and are just words on a page

they don't portray anything to the reader.

They are lifeless and mean nothing.

Merely scattered ideas carelessly thrown onto the paper.

They've got talent

They're so much better than you

They're loved so much more than you

They're recognized so much more thank you

But when you try to do it

When you try

It's nothing

Because

You have no talent

You are nothing.
