On Writing
Writing is a relationship
Each time falling in love
With the power of the pen
Tracing the lines of my
Imaginative mind
Leaving behind signs
To discover patterns
In the design
Writing is a relationship
Falling in love with characters
Dispelling fear where page
Meets image
It can become a mirror or reflection
It can be fantastical or
Expose a society to itself
Real life dramas
Bringing light or
Coming out of the darkness
Writing the world how I’d like it to be or
Project an image of the woman I want to become
Writing is a relationship
Dynamic, cathartic, untrammeled
Rolling emotions
Playing like a spoiled brat or
Finding a way to self-protect
The triumph in the tragedy
The song in the words
Painting pictures
Savoring before digesting
I love its lingering taste
Writing is a relationship
It’s my saving grace
