There Is Power
Location
There’s Power in words
And life in book pages
Breathe
Breath in that smell
Of characters and plot
See how they live?
Look
Look at the chapters
The way they seem
To pull you in
Like a lifeline at sea
Do you see?
Do you see why I write?
To save lives that otherwise may
Be lost to the confusion of the world
To save myself from the crushing
Never ending cycle
Of the world
Writing
Reading
Breathing
Eating
Necessary in our lives
In all of our lives
To learn
To escape
To feel the Power
Of others dead and alive
The power is ours
To write down our feelings
And thoughts
Do not fear the blankness of a page
Take solace in it
Realize that your life holds more than you can
Imagine
See
Understand
One day you will understand
And see the Power
And imagine the impact you left
The life in book pages is you
You are reflected
In everything you read
So look and smell and breathe and taste
It’s all yours
This Power of words
It is not only in books
It is you
In your words
In your thoughts
In what you do
Revel in it
There’s Power in words
And all of it is yours
What makes me Flawless?
This Power to write
This is who I am
And who I will always be
