I write about what disturbs me, what I love and fear
I put it all on paper
Words others, will never hear.
The pen held in my fist
Does not turn away
It waits so patiently
For what I need to say.
And though the paper may be damp,
From tears not brushed aside,
It still offers me solace, saying
Here…you must not hide.
So I pour forth the emotions
The anger and the pain
Now the paper is slightly crumbled
Yet chooses to remain.
Silently begging,
taunting too
As 3 am shouts
There’s more inside of you.
The pages are filled
Dry, now is my pen
I split myself open
Through the words within.
Another book now
Placed on the shelf
I don’t need a mirror
To look at myself.
If you look for me
I can only be found
On the coffee table
I’m leather bound.
The inscription inside
Will read like this
It was here
That I loved…
Here That I lived!

I’ve always been a deep thinker. Superficial, mediocre conversations will never do. I want the raw, bone deep, authentic version of people. I’ve always expressed myself through writing. The only talent I possess is being able to articulate emotions through written expressions. Strangers comment on how my writing has helped them to realize that they are not alone. They find comfort in knowing that someone out there not only understands, but can put into words, what they feel. I’m an INFJ-E
