"Why can't you just write like a normal happy human?"
---
Writing used to be easy,
fairy tales of joy & ease an of words,
but momma says
thats for a little girl.
Now it's writing for perfection,
perfect punctuation,
perfect spelling,
perfect meaning.
What if I didn't want to be perfect,
what if I wanted to write easy?
To write with words that didn't complain of self hurt,
even when I'm dying on the inside.
To write with words of love and acceptance,
even when people around shove hate down my throat.
To write with words that show that things are okay,
even when they might not.
To write with words that people want to read,
even when all I say is a lie.
What if I wrote with my heart, as broke as it is,
what if I wrote it out,
and finally let it heal?
I have had this one for a couple years on a document with a question my friend asked, that's said above, and finally decided to put it somewhere for people to see.
