MY COMMITMENT TO STORIES
On the heels of Stories, I do survive.
If not for them, where would I be?
Keeping me focused on the page, they reel me in to weave plots.
It is then that I imagine events, places, people,
introduce and reintroduce characters, and
find ways to inform the page of characters’ personalities.
O dear, what would I do without stories?
They keep me interested in traveling to unknown places.
Exploring, discovering and creating new worlds, I learn so much about forgotten souls.
If not for stories, then what?
Stories and I, closely tied, they teach me about my truth.
We have settled to live in each other’s company always, and forever.
