The Power of Writing

When into turmoil my emotions are thrown

When I am feeling completely alone

When nothing seems to make sense anymore

I seek refuge in writing, into words I pour

My angst, even when my emotions are not well-articulated

Writing provides me comfort, lets my angst get abated

*

Writing provides a mechanism to cope

With life’s challenges, words distill hope

Into my heart when I am drowning in despair

Pouring my woes on paper makes me more self-aware

Gives me a path forward when there appears to be none

Weaving my problems into words is half the battle
