Pen to Paper


Tears trail familiar cheek bones. Pick up your pen and paper Chocked cries echo in silence. Don't drop your pen and paper Turmoil tears the inside. Press down your pen to paper Allow all the words to move you. As your pen dances on the paper Let loose the ink to fly free and wild. Just put your pen to paper One wonderful worlds might crash and burn. But you can put your pen to paper Do you feel that healing magic? As you remove your pen from paper Can you feel your heart grow light? As you rest your pen away from paper Do you know what it feels like? When you put your pen to paper
