I feel things.I imagine things.
I wonder about things.
Sometimes I write pure feelings.
Sometimes I write because I feel lonely.
Sometimes I make up stories around what I'm feeling.
Sometimes I write because I want to tell someone something.
Sometimes I write because I need to express what I'm feeling or thinking.
Sometimes I write because I want to find out what I’m thinking or feeling.

ReplyDeleteYup, writing sets me a degree apart from what I feel or think, like having a counsellor refelcting my thoughts, but without the cost.
Very deep.
Thank you for that observation.
ReplyDeleteSometimes it's the only way I can get to my thoughts.

yes to all the above about writing. I also write to see how the words giggle and clash, how they bump and cuddle and laugh together, making puddles of meaning in their paths...

I write to rise

Time to go beyond
Writing becomes a therapy of life
And adds to its beauty.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your poetry.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I write because I want to find out what I’m thinking or feeling.
For me, that's really the only reason.
