PEN TO PAPER

By infinitebeing


I put this pen to paper
imagining the pain dispersing
like a poison trickling out
permanently staining the sheet
growing a skin over my wounds
by ryhming words and fitting them in
crumbling the paper and tossing it in the trash
in hopes that everything written
went along with it

The riddles still replay in my head
the pain never leaves.

    if im reading correctly your referring to the truly great poems that are unworthy for any ones eyes because its to personal to share. ive wrote a few poems like that. just to see what my true feelings look like on paper. just to get it out. its very therapeutic because were getting that honesty, at times the brutal honesty that just cant be shared. your just awesome, that's all I can say.
