poetry

i don't really remember when
exactly i started writing,
i remember always writing short
stories to read to my
younger sister so she could fall asleep,
i remember always being able
to write about anything and everything.

i don't remember when i
started writing, but
i do remember loving it,
i remember always being so
passionate about writing,
always writing about the things
around me,
whether it was about my
surroundings, or the way i felt.

writing poetry always seemed
like a hobby for me,
something i would do in
my free time, or
when i was bored.
but little did i know that it
was my outlet.

i would write whenever i was
feeling mad, or upset, or when i
wanted to confess the things i felt
for a crush.
whatever it was, i would
write it down.
whether it was a haiku, or a
short story, or a mediocre poem,
i would write what i
was feeling down.
if it hadn't been for that, i
wouldn't of been able to clearly
express my emotions,
if i hadn't been for that i
would've definitely gone insane

everything just seems so
much easier on paper
