A Poet's life is a life of solitary. You are alone with your words and alone with your stories. You are alone by choice and you have the need to write because it is a calling and a vocation for life. It is not a profession it does not pay much but it is what you are called to do because you must express yourself, Each piece of poetry tells a story of something that goes on in your life story.
Heart break, depression, loneliness, too, love, desperation and even the deep thought of suicide too. It tells when you break up with a boy/girl friend, and tell when you start a new life too and when it begins.
The Poet's life is one of loneliness but this is how we work and we have chosen this path for a very good reason. No one can distraction us, because we must write we are all Poets that tell of our lives.
