The Words of My Heart

I have learned

To walk

When all I want to do

Is

Run

 

I have learned to

Talk

When all I want to do

Is stay

Silent.

 

The lines I write

Aren’t only stanzas

They are my

Therapy.

 

A therapy where

I can breathe.

One where I can

Open my

Eyes.

 

The words that flow

Give me a piece of

Mind.

One I need when

I feel

Broke.

 

They have taught me

To love

When I feel a strong

Dislike

Or to strive

When I feel

Lost.

 

The words I write

Don’t only sit on a

Page.

They sit on my

Heart.
