Instead of words
authors should let their tears
drip onto a page and tell their story.
Authors should cut their wrists,
bleed out their insides,
and show readers their unfiltered,
honest, human response.
Tears and blood
are the true emotions behind
stories of:
fictional love,
fictional loss,
fictional desire.
Authors, keep your words.
They are nothing more
than a muse for emotion.
Show me some blood,
cry me your tears,
show me the truth,
so I know your story is real
and not a work of mere fiction
I’ve never read something that felt so real and relatable. Beautifully written!
