My First, First Love- Blog 3

I love writing. I first fell in love with writing such as storytelling and poetry when i was about 10. First i was writing about flowers, then i started writing about situations I've been through in life, places I've gone and dreaming of going. Writing is like a relationship to me, minus any physical activity because that would be just sick. I love hearing my own voice when I am reading my stuff because i know that no one is going to read it like me. As in a human relationship, i watched my writing grow, change and i don't have to pretend with my writing because I am the writer, i create my own world, my own way. Sometimes i forget that i have a body when i am writing because I am so into it. My father used to write poetry and stories about his life as a father, husband and a Muslim, I never knew that he wrote poetry until the day of his funeral, when my step- mother recited one of his poems that he wrote on his deathbed. I know now that writing is in my blood.
