My Method to Writing

Words just seem to string together in my mind
They form phrases that I like
The trigger to my inspiration is always different
Something I hear
Something I see
That's the moment I write the best
I think
My goal is to reflect emotions
The things everyone knows
Maybe oepn your eyes to something new
As for the way I write it
The style
Prose is always good
But I tend to rhyme
Sometimes I'm not even aware of it
Other times I do it on purpose
Sometimes it's meant to be a song
Going by my own beat
Or imitating the rhythm of another
Possibly songs you don't know
Or maybe your favorites
I don't know
Maybe you like them
Maybe you don't
I think songs are poems
And poems are songs
Or maybe I'm wrong?
I prefer lyrics
Writing from experience
Is the best in my mind
You write what you know
You know what you write
Scars are stories
Waiting to be told

Do you believe that an artist must be scarred to produce haunting melodies of beauty...I think its very possible, that art stems from a heart with scars...
