this is my poem
this is the one way I can talk without crying
this is my story
I write when I am speechless
The words just seem to flow across the page
As the ink does its thing
I feel safe
as the ink runs across the paper like a wave
All my shattered emotions scatter
as I breathe in and out
like the waves bounce to the ocean
this is my poem to the world
this is my story
and I am ready to talk
