I write to find relief
that doesn't involve slashing skin.
I write because my pen says the words
that my mouth can't.
I write because
my paragraphs can't stutter.
I write because
I don't have to force eye contact upon myself while communicating.
Writing gives me strength.
Control.
The things I lack inthe physical world.
Writing is ten times better
than smoking pot with friends
or screwing any guy willing.
Writing is the best alternative.
Writing is the best thing for me.
Writing is the best panacea out there.
Writing is power.
