Can I write through every tear?
Every heartbreak that rips through me.
All the deaths left behind.
Compilations with long time friends.
Trauma that wasn't fault.
Is it possible to write every pain?
Through the horrible things.
The awful memories.
Nightmares that try to tear me apart.
I put the pen to paper.
Typing out every thought in my head.
Does the pain end there?
The burden feels less when I put in a title.
I can breath a little easier.
That's why I do it at all.
My words will live forever.
So I write everything out there.
Nothing is left untouched.

I see the world a little differently than most. Even at a young age I was writing down what I saw but never sharing it with a soul until now. I'm choosing love over fear.
