When my thoughts can't form 
Coherent sentences 
I can put together 
My fragmented thoughts 
Into stanzas.

When the tears sting my eyes
Or the anger boils inside my stomach
Or the anxiety makes me feel like 
My chest is caving in
The words bring me back.

I send these love letters
Apology notes
fanciful thoughts 
And midnight musings 
Off into the world
In the hope that 
Someone feels the same
And my voice 
Reminds them of their own
And even brings them comfort.
