Writing to Right

The feelings are a rebutal of what comes from my mouth

The feelings keep coming and dragging me south

Too strong and too pressing; they keep me in pain

The negative thoughts presume they can reign

Only one way to fight back and I know what to do

I reach for my pen and I reach out to you

I write what I feel and find closure within

If I let out these demons I think I may win

Every mistake and every moment I have failed

Transforms into proof that I have prevailed

The pen releases the darkness clouding my mind

The liquid dries quickly as I leave it behind
