I cannot sleep
so I cannot dream
I cannot speak
so I cannot scream
So I write about my pain
I write about the rain
How It feels on my face
and how I'm out of place.
I disappear when I write
I no longer have to fight
when I find my words on this page
I break free from my cage
I look down at my words
thoughts fly free like birds
clarity for my mind
my soul is never far behind.
Poetically speaking
I am free,
poetically speaking
this is me.
