The Power of Words

Words are my fix
The pen and ink are what I obsess over
They give me me the satisfaction I so badly crave
They give me that release, that escape I previously desired
With every stroke, every movement of my hand the pain decreases
Difference is, I'm not killing myself
Difference is, I'm getting stronger
The words are my friends
They embrace me, surround me, take me in their arms and protect me
So small yet so powerful, they're always there for me
No bullshit, no excuses
They can stand as an eternal tribute
They can mend the wounds, give me company through the sleepless nights
The flow of the ink cleanses me like a divine stream
It washes away the pain, the dirt inside me
Let them forever tell my story
Let them forever be by my side
Because when all is said and done, the words will still stand
And should the day come when they can no longer help me, they'll always be there to save somebody else
