i wrote to be free

free from my problems in the safest way possible

the words flowed to the page

capturing the anger

capturing the sadness

capturing the unknown

finally i was able to let go

leting go from the pain that i felt 

i was going through

it was easier this way 

instead of taking my life 

marring my skin 

feeling the self hate

having the voices scream their terrible putdowns

when the words left my hand 

i felt free

free to enjoy my life as i was suppose to.
