I write when I'm not having a good day
I write when I feel alone
I write when I'm drinking alone, in the middle of the day
looking out the window...
to the sunshine, I don't feel
I write
I write because I want to be someone . . . one day
someone who has
someone who is
someone who ain't . . . that
someone of value
someone of prestige
someone people admire
someone people see
seen
not unseen
not the braille on my chest
conflict
conflict messaging
conflicting messages
in distortion
I write
I write in my feelings
I write to calm down
I write to move forward
...to get through the day
I write to accept ME
all that I am
I write
and I write
and I write
enough said.
