Welcome to Writers Who Have To...

We are a forum of writers. If you're interested in becoming a contributor, send your desired username and email to Jill at: info@writerswhohaveto.com or visit Writers Who Have To... on MySpace.

Write whatever you'd like, whenever you want! This is an open forum for like minded authors. Feedback and comments are necessary! Remember, there are no holds barred, here.

For writers: When publishing make sure to add your username as a tag/label (you'll see the bar at the bottom of your blog edit window). This way it'll be much easier to pull up your work all in one go. Also, if you'd like you can add the type, ie: Short Story, Poetry, Blog, Rant, etc to your labels as well as the genre. This will make sorting much easier! Thank you!

WRITE IT OUT!!!
Remember: Comments are necessary for the survival of all writers!! Feedback is love and love is grand!!!

From Sparks, Fire Comes

I knew you knew me, I wanted you to see me
It hasn't been that long, I knew you never forgot me
What was a fire is ashes but that never really surprised us
We knew what we were doing, we knew what it was
You got what you wanted, same as I did
Never expecting anything more
But I changed, you changed a little too
And that was the fatal flaw

You cannot change the rules mid-game
You cannot say you don't want and then want
Nobody wins, it's a loss or a draw
And I drew you into a corner
How dare you feel, you might just as well have said
I guess I was worse at pushing away
It doesn't matter now, it is what it is
But it isn't what it could have been.
