I write with my eyes closed,
To see the world within.
The words flow like a river,
Unafraid to begin.
I write with my eyes closed,
To feel the emotions deep.
The pain and the joy,
The love and the grief.
I write with my eyes closed,
To connect with my soul.
The truth and the lies,
The light and the cold.
I write with my eyes closed,
To find my way home.
The journey is long,
But the destination is known.
I write with my eyes closed,
To see the world as it truly is.
A place of beauty and pain,
Of love and loss.
I write with my eyes closed,
To connect with the universe.
To feel the energy of all that is,
And to know that I am a part of something much larger than myself.
I write with my eyes closed,
To find my way home.
To the place where I belong,
To the place where I am loved.
I write with my eyes closed,
And I see the world.

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.

A beautifully composed poem 🥰
This is such a good idea! I should try writing with my eyes closed too!
