Poetry Is My Drug

When I write, it feels like a breath of fresh air. 

I know if I vent to someone, they won't understand.

So I pick up my pen and a piece of paper, and get lost in my emotions.

Love, anger, anxiety, fear... 

Everything I want to get away from, I write it on paper.

It takes the weight off my shoulders. 

It's hard for me to express myself, but I hope people understand me when they read my work. 

I took my time, to help them realize, and kind of feel what I'm feeling.

Come with me on this journey to happiness.

Poetry is my drug, my yoga, ... my whole container of ice cream.

When I'm done writing, I feel free. 

Thank you.
