Writing...is my escape, it helps me fill an unknown void in my life

Even when everything goes wrong it gives me hope that I can make right
It gives me strength and it puts me at ease
I feel as though for one second.. I am the only person I must please
A large sense of pride and happiness to me it brings
For like Maya Angelou I know why the caged bird sings
In reality I am meek and as quiet as a mouse
But once my pen or pencil hits paper,everything comes out
In my writing I don't have to listen or take orders at all
No worrying about being picked at or wrong, or being clumsy and fall
I can be whoever I want to be as a beautiful, as sophisticated
Even if my world feels like its crashing down, writing make me elated
It helps me to grow, and its molded me into who I am
It turned me from someone who took anything to someone who takes a stand
My writing is peace, my joy and my happy place
For with a pen and paper I write the story of me
That no one can take away or erase
