The Pen
A freedom from reality
A life in a world of your own.
A release from pain
A satisfaction only known once felt
A chance to express love through hate
Showing the value of life with death.
Speaking only lies and riddles
While subconsciously revealing your hidden truths
The opportunity to laugh at your deepest fears
To hide your darkest secrets in the light of day.
It’s that unbearable realization, that brings a smile to your face
Or the feelings brought knowing someone you love, is better off without you.
The pain of rejection, the tears of joy, everything you don’t understand
Trapped inside this black ink, waiting to be released
Ready to set you free
