pen to paper
fingers to keys
writing for everyone else
but me
saying sorry or wanting answers
going without what i need
i wanna write to myself
but that is really cheesy
i write for approval
because validation is what i seek
like maybe if i put words in the right order
my issues would cease to be
but even as i write away my soul
my problems keep existing
i can't find out how to feel
so i write like it will fix me
