creativity

an outlet

as natural 

as necessary

as neverending

as breathing, or the beating

of my 

heart

a life force that

cannot be 

severed

a door into the realm

that I can't,

or won't

contain,

today

 

or tomorrow

 

or ever

 

a vessel for the worlds and weapons

and characters and creatures and colonies

that dwell beneath the reaches

of the mind

a world that I will always

remember

an opening, like a portal 

into another world

that I can't,

or won't

contain, 

today

 

or tomorrow

 

or ever
