freeform poem about being a writer, incidentally one of the first poems I ever wrote

To write you must say
exactly what you feel.
There is no room for
half-truths or mistakes.
You must know what you feel
and how to say it.
Some people don't understand
how important
one
particular
word
can be.
I have spent my whole life
searching for the right word.
