The Words

I want to write more
writing has always helped me
gather thoughts and feelings
to figure our what to do
through challenges
or joyous times
I always found myself
in rhymes

When the words dry up
the mind becomes cloudy
storms brew unabated
rain falls from my eyes
confusion grows
and old age
consumes me as
hope fades

please don't let me stop writing
even if no one ever responds
please don't ever let me stop writing
for I would not be here if the words were gone
my hope comes from the hope
the words will carry on

and if you care about me
you will put a pen in my hand
even if you never respond
even if you don't understand

if you care about me
encourage more writing
it keeps my head
and my heart from fighting
it lets me figure
myself out
writing is
what I'm about
without it
I get lost in doubt
losing myself
can't you see
without writing
I
lose
touch
with
me

please don't let me stop writing
even if no one ever responds
please don't ever let me stop writing
for the words will still be here after I'm gone
the words can carry on
the words will carry on

word

please don't let me stop writing
even if no one ever responds
please don't ever let me stop writing
writing keeps me sane while I am here
and the words will still be here after I'm gone
the words can carry on
the words will carry on
