"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."

Dear old pen on paper
you would never brake my heart
and you wouldn't take our friendship
and let it fall apart

I know you'd never backstab
I don't think that you'd lie
as long as I still want you
we wont have to say goodbye

If I told you that I felt love
you would say you loved me too
With you I never feel left out
or wonder if you're true

I think you're mine forever
you're the only one around
who isn't messing with my heart
and hasn't let me down

So thank you pen on paper
you are my one true friend
and if you swear to do the same
I'll be here till the end.

This is exactly how I feel about writing.. I just love it. I feel like old fashioned pen on paper is better than typing out your writing. You just can't have the same relationship with a machine.
