I am mostly geared for short stories, however I try writing poetry. It is not one of my strengths though. I mostly write tragedy, and its not because I am trying to achieve some emotional, depressed look.
What is a poet? An unhappy person who hides deep anguish in his heart, but whose lips are so formed that when the sigh and cry pass through them, it sounds like lovely music. — Søren Kierkegaard, Philosopher & Theologian
