Feeling

as if I might just burst into a million pieces.

As I somehow have nowhere safe to say what needs to be said.

The words are in my head but no matter how hard I try they won’t come out.

And if they could you wouldn’t want to hear them anyways and so I guess I’ll just keep bottling it up until I have no more room to store it all.

For these are the days of my life and maybe that’s why things feel not so bright lately.

The dullness of my life is all around no matter what corner of my life I go to nothing is lighting up the way it used too.

Poetry

The melody

Advertisements

plays on and on

and in that moment

I’m lost in the music

and my emotions are

growing.

As  the words fill my mind

and I’m lost in time.

My fingers hit the keys

and the words fly from my mind.

As the melody guides me to my next piece of work

The words connect me so much I start to change them

To fit the flow I need to feel like this piece is mine.

The melody flows through me like blood through my veins, it energizes me to go

On with my writing as I erase to find the right words that leave me with a smile on my face and, feeling so good I know the piece is good no matter what others say.
