"I'm never alone. I'm alone all the time. Are you at one or do you lie? We live in a wheel or where everyone steals. When we rise it is like strawberry fields. I treated you bad, you bruised my face. Couldnt love you, boy, you've got a beautiful taste."
Glycerine- Bush
Am I a reader or a writer? It all depends on the material I am reading. I tend to get lost inside the lyrics of a song but I do not expect that to be called reading. If I am reading a book, it seldom captures my attention but if I am reading a poem or a peice that actually means something to somebody it brings me to a whole different level. If it talks about how someone is feeling now or at a point in their life, it opens my eyes. I can put myself into their position.
When I write, I tend to base characters on people I know, friends that I spend my time with, struggles people I know have had. When I write, it isn't usually some mystical fairy tale about unicorns, dragons, and prince charming; when I write, it doesn't always have a happy ending because in real life, endings do not end happy for everybody. I can elaborate a bit in my work but I tend to keep the plot real, the people real, the situations possible, the story imaginable.
So, the question. Reader or writer? I would much rather get lost in my own imagination than some 72 year old mans' imagination who is blazing it every night to get more inspiration.
