I am a polytheist. My gods are Writers. I worship them.

They are artists. I use italics because they are so much more than that but I don't know how else to describe them. Their art - just words strung together. But in such a way that if feels like they've looked into the depths of your thoughts where all your beliefs lie, so strong that they remain in the murk, incoherent and inexpressible. Then they bleed them out and drink them in so that when they exhale, they breathe out words so profound and true that it makes your breath hitch.

And you ache to know this person, this god who has exposed you, vulnerable in unforgiving black ink. Only you were never in the picture. The soul laid bare was his, not yours or anyone else stripped naked by his words.

And this makes it hurt all the more. Because in him lies your soul-mate, in him lies your lover - his intimacy in his words, and you will never know him. Oh you may have met, be on first-name terms, be best friends, share the same bed. But you will never know him. Because his thoughts lie deep inside, all jumbled up in such a mess that it would take another Writer to unravel and reveal them.

I wish I were that Writer. I write, but I am not a Writer. And I'll never be one, however much I ache to be. And so, I have to remain content with worshipping Writers from afar.

I realise that I refer to Writers above as masculine. My apologies to anyone offended by this. It just so happens that most of the Writers I worship are male.
