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
