The Paper In My Lap

Ashley Plotczyk Inspired I write, inspired by my heart my thoughts only able to be expressed through my poems The best time for me to write is when I am emotional The paper serves as my relief It takes my struggle away from me I love to write when no one else is around me My thoughts only heard by me but read by others once I have mellowed down I enjoy sitting down being only surrounded by silence This is the time I take for myself I take the pen and I write until I've found the right words The only words that can soothe my uneasiness from my busy life and hectic mind My favorite place to write is anywhere I am able to write at that moment that I have the urge to release my feelings Like my busy life, I do not wait around to write I write poetry everyday and I will not always be in the same places But my mind will always know how to trade places with the paper in my lap
