The Writer's Voice

The World's Favourite Literary Website

To Uplift One's Self

by

Eric M. Hines

I reveal revelations through manifestation,

Disregarding condemnation,

For I alone can know the truth,

But the knowing can feel the beauty.



Inscribe to first appease the masses,

And the only void will be your own.

In this manner I had fallen long ago.

But from bitter defeat my soul has grown.



My heart is released, I’ve told my story.

Heed my words with careful eyes.

Write for yourself, not for the glory,

And see beyond the empty lies.




Dedicated to FS and writers everywhere. True power lies within
