Writing


The one thing I can’t live without is this

 

Writing

 

Pen on Paper

Mind to Word

 

I can’t live

 

Without

 

This

 

Expressing myself through ink

In between the spaces of a keyboard

Through words

 

The ideas that flow through the blue blood in my veins

I can put onto the page through the blue ink of a pen

 

Writing is in my blood

 

It gives me life

 

Makes me feel something

 

Feel something other than the beating of my heart

The breath of my body

The touch of my skin

 

Writing makes me feel apart of something that’s bigger

Something bigger than just me and the paper

It makes me feel like I can create something immortal

 

Something infinite
