She said to write down my feelings.

That's all I had to do.

And I'm the only one

that I have to show it to

But there's alot that's going on right now.

and there's just so much to say

I was afraid that I simply couldn't 

relieve myself that way.

But she just gave me a pen

and a small decorative book.

And everything she wanted me to do

she told me with a look.

I put my pen to my paper

And I let my mind run free.

And on a that page I wrote

everything that worried me.

I put down my entire soul

gave every thought some time.

And now when my mom refers to me,

she says "She's got a poet's mind."
