Not sure I agree with the premise. People look at things in different ways. A personal view may be unique. However, that said, I believe your little poem expresses the feelings many writers have at sometime or another.

Thank you for your kind review and generous rating. I share your view about the premise. I was simply using what my father always told me every time I asked him to read something I had written. He always said "Don't waste your time with trying to be a writer. Everything that can be said has already been said by people who write far better than you." His was just ONE person's view... so I agree with you completely.

Wow, that is some viewpoint. Happy that you had the fortitude and write anyway.

Yes this is just about how it is really, re writing and the 'why' of it - yet on we go and keep tapping out those sentiments of fear and love and beauty - so glad we do - thanks for sharing

Thank you for your kind (and poetic) review. I'm glad you enjoyed reading it.

You have put your finger on why most writers feel the need to do it - writing and self expression come from the heart.
Every person's experience is unique, so I personally feel there is always something new to say from a different viewpoint.

Pure Poetry In Motion!!! And only one who shares
the common bond of being an artist would be able to
relate to the creative art, that you've displayed in this
one. For, writing is an addiction to those, who choose
to study their craft. Nice Job. Keep Writing.

I feel this. And you said it all in a few words. This takes talent. I enjoyed reading and looking at the picture. Keep up the great work. Stay safe.
Let the words flow.

This is a sensational 5-7-5. I love the photo and your words tell a story of the end. Your urge to continue writing is what writers need. A fix if you will before you experience withdrawals.
