We pour out our hearts, sometimes we feel better
With every single word, with every solitary letter
Written from the soul, a place we hold sacred
Baring the hidden, we’re stripped down and naked
Others may find us a little bit quirky
They can’t figure us out, it’s all a bit murky
Yet, we are not here to be figured at all
We write with our blood, the ink, alcohol
Not the kind from a bottle, though it might surely help
The kind you won’t find, on anyone’s shelf
It flows through our veins, like the rapids, it seeks
Unsuspecting, our readers, those that we may bespeak
And they who have found us, await us again
They keep coming back, no they dare not refrain
From reading the page with the words, yes, our verse
These poems we write, they’re our glory, our curse

Really cool. I like how you describe the energy and passion for writing as “alcohol”
