Writing

Writing is hurting a little.

Letting that piece of you fly by,

be carried away by the wind,

to spark some fire elsewhere.

 

Ashes and smoke left behind

Bring memories of burned

pain and fear

laugh and joy

lightness and darkness;

 

To write is to hurt a little.

Hurt inside and outside

a smell that reminds you

of a past you wanted to have been

and a future you will never create;

 

You hurt when you write.

As words come out

pages get filled,

blank is marked with ink,

(it may be) good hurt

pain that leads far

makes emptiness full;

 

Dont worry, you hurt.

Writing follows

without stopping

saying something suffocated

by ancient pain you were avoiding.
