Poetry potluck wk 14- Writing
I write to set free emotions
To remember the tears
And to somehow forget the commotions
Writing is my therapy, my sanity
The words that come out of me have a yearning to live
They have their own vanity
These words come to life
As soon as they hit the air
Cutting through like a knife
These words are me
Who I am
They are merely the debris of my heart

Writing is a very cathartic activity–those words do seem to have a life of their own–to give voice to our emotions. Love this very expressive writing–very personal. Thanks for sharing, Tootsie.
