HOW I STAY SANE

All I ever do is write,
it's been that way
all my life.
Wherever I am,
whatever happens,
I write about it.
Somehow, for years now
I've found comfort,
a stable foundation
to always fall
back on.
Through my pen
on the page I can
always manage to
release and relieve,
give substance to
something I believe.
Explore an experience
to its core,
delving deep to find
just a bit more
than what's exposed.
For the rest of my life
I hope to write
most days and nights.
Whenever I'm struck
by a brilliant idea,
whenever I want to
make something clear.
Whenever I'm inspired
or sad and in pain,
when I'm angry or hurt
it's how I stay sane.
