Pain And Poetry

May 4, 2016

Sending a puppy off to be someone's eyes.

Fighting depression and anxiety.

Making my way through a world with few allies.

Feeling like an outsider to society.

A way to express the feelings inside,

I reached out to my creative side.

Poems have passion.

Emotion.

Zeal.

Alliterations, rhymes, and rhythms

Gave me a way to feel.
