The Power
Piles of papers
Stacked high like skyscrapers
Line up against the wall
Kept for no real significance
I began to write
In the moment
When the words
Just flowed out like a river
They expressed feelings
And brought awareness
To my thoughts
It makes me stop
And think of where
I’ve been
And where I’m going
I know from yester years
That I made up my mind
To not waste anymore
Time on those guys
You know the ones
or on those so called "friends"
Or on the hurt that comes from being bullied and ridiculed
So no matter
How hard I try
Those papers
Are of great importance
They have impacted my life
In more ways than one
They give me power
The power to express
The power to feel
The power to share
The Power to Write
