To write,
was to embrace all the waves
that you kept off the shore.
To write,
was to embrace the thoughts
you shoveled down
so they wouldn't have the power to hurt you.
To write,
was to feel liberated
of your shackles and confinement.
To write,
was to find yourself
navigating towards
your own thoughts
and emotions that you
kept away for so long.
To write,
was to feel once more
and be brought back to yourself.

To write,
was to embrace all the waves
that you kept off the shore.
To write,
was to embrace the thoughts
you shoveled down
so they wouldn't have the power to hurt you.
To write,
was to feel liberated
of your shackles and confinement.
To write,
was to find yourself
navigating towards
your own thoughts
and emotions that you
kept away for so long.
To write,
was to feel once more
and be brought back to yourself.
