Bashirah Asuku

The writer\'s burden

Strangled by every word he writes,

Never knowing his reader’s shifting moods.

‎Their reactions become his motivation,

‎Turning his passion into pure dedication.

‎The life he lives may seem comfortable,

‎Yet some comments feel unbearable.

‎He chose writing simply as a hobby,

‎But is judged as though he committed a robbery.

‎The human heart can sometimes be evil,

‎Not only spirits can be devils.

‎They hide beneath human flesh,

‎Seeking ways to wound and leave the pain fresh.
