Sometimes...

by Innocent Fairy   Feb 10, 2012


I write when I can't say
what's on my mind
but it's always hard
to find the words
for the feelings
running through my veins.

Sometimes the words
come so easy that I can sing.
Flowing with intensity and
can never stop
until my hands start hurting
and I pause
while trying to catch my breath.

Sometimes I write
just to stop crying
and sometimes
I write just to stop feeling.

Sometimes I wanna feel numb
because the feelings become
too much to handle.
Sometimes I just want to write
for fun and feel creative
or because I want to spread
with the world inspiration
and give peace, hope and joy.

Sometimes I read
to escape and sometimes I read,
knowing I'm not alone.

    Oh brilliant hun,

    Sometimes I write
    just to stop crying
    and sometimes
    I write just to stop feeling.
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    I feel like this sometimes to when writing. It's like the emotions need to be let out so we can begin to feel normal again. The pain releases within the pen / paper or typing and it feels a little better for a moment.

    Awesome poem

    Wow, Kristian... this poem is so powerful and really touched me. I think everyone on this site can relate to this, since we all write poetry and we have different reasons for writing, but mostly it's to express our emotions. I really love this poem, you've written amazing imagery and I was captivated from start to finish.

    This poem is perfect and great! I have one suggestion:

    "Sometimes I wanna feel numb"
    >>> how about you change 'wanna' to 'want to'

    Other than, amazing!! Great job hon!
