HOW A PENCIL SAVED MY LIFE
Touch the paper with a pencil
Shouting thoughts come alive
My mind is leaking ideas
The words explode on paper
Eventually coming together
To create a world of mine
Thinking becomes out of control
A pencil brings me to utopia
At the same time it grounds me
Writing becomes medicine
To heal my broken soul
This pencil in my hand
Has brought me more than life
Expression that is necessary
A pencil that keeps my heart beating
Creations I must live for
All from a number two pencil
A poem has been born
Writing that will live on
This poem is about:
Me
