When I'm sad, I write
When I'm confused, I write
When I'm bored, I write
When I'm happy, I write
But when I feel like the world is crashing down around me,
I put my hands over my head and think.
I may stick in my earbuds and listen to the words being sung,
trying to decode every phrase to find a meaning.
A meaning that I understand.
And in that moment,
when the words make sense,
I can piece the world back together and
write again.
