Just like every second of the day

Creativity cannot be rushed

It’s something we all have

And what makes us 

US 

But something overlooked

Underestimated

Thought of as a joke

 

She told me I had 5 hours

Only 5 hours

To write the poem

The poem that would change my life

But I told her one thing

And one thing only

Creativity is a beauty that mustn’t be rushed

 

Then she told me I had 10 hours 

As if only 10 hours would make any difference 

But creativity is something that needs patience 

It’s something that always needs me to be passionate 

Not for only 10 hours

And surely not for only 5

But for every hour I live and breath

So I told her one thing

And one thing only

Creativity is a beauty that mustn’t be rushed

 

Finally, she told I had all the time in the world

Still she knew nought 

Creativity is a delicacy that needs all the time

In the world and beyond

I can’t rush to the ideas

I have to wait for them to rush to me

because 

Creativity is a beauty that mustn’t be rushed
