Just what makes you think writing (poetry, lyrics, short stories, novels, anything) doesn't take just as much practice, time, effort and talent as playing a musical instrument? Personally, I'm a poet who learned to play guitar to put my words to music. Same as Leonard Cohen. Did I come in the backdoor or something? Have you read any poetry books lately? Try some by Leonard Cohen. Spicebox of Earth is good. Or get his novel Beautiful Losers. That's one novel I would have to call poetry. Have you sat down and practiced writing without a musical instrument?

You have to take writing as seriously as you do music. "You just have to practice and practice to master it."
