when there is nothing left to be said

By saturatedloneliness6

for me, writing is a kind of release
a release that keeps me from screaming at people,
ramming my car into that dude that cut me off,
and even sometimes, commiting suicide.

for me, writing is a kind of orgasm
watching the words flow under my fingertips
onto an open canvas that could yeild so many possibilities,
yet only revealing exactly what i want each time.

for me, writing is a kind of peace
i can forget about the war in the middle east
and focus on my life, good, bad and inbetween
i can put my mind to work on something worth while.

for me, writing is a kind of drug
an addiction so strong, nothing will relieve me of my duties,
duties to write out to all of you, touch your souls
and when all that there is to be said, is said, it will release me.

vague definitions for something so complex
or something so simple, based on how you view your world.
and when there is nothing left to be said,
i say we just start over from the beginning.
