“To Be A Writer” by Prakhyat Chatla

Being a writer has always been my desire,
But unfortunately, so far it has only filled me with ire!
I know I can do it, there’s not just a spark, but a fire!
I’m not writing just to impress the girls or some sire,
Many think that it is from the girl that I inspire!
Well guys, I won’t stoop so low, I aim much higher!
I know you may think, this guy’s a big liar!

You don’t know half of the things I aspire! 
I want to be remembered forever, but not when in a mire, 
But every single second during which you respire! 
I want to be known as the writer who will never tire, 
To hell with it! I don’t even wish to retire! 
I want my fame to be as high as a spire, 
Hopefully just to see me, people don’t have to hang from a wire! 
These poems should be in every book, every timeline, every flyer! 
These are the things which I want to wear as my attire, 
Hey! I’m being honest. Don’t think this is a satire.
