Why I write

My soul bleeds through this pen
The words they slowly leak
The paper is my best friend
It shows when I am weak
The writing never judges
It's just me and the page
It helps me with my thoughts
It helps me clear the haze
The words pour out forever
Just like a waterfall
I always have my writing
To help me when I fall
When no ones there to listen
Or to tell me I'm okay
I take out my purple notebook
And it gets me through the day
If I couldn't write my poems
I know just where I'd be
I'd be buried in the ground
Because no one could see
This is my one and only release
To explain just how I feel
But I'll keep on writing
In time, all wounds will heal
