Comfort

There's just some comfort of having a pen nestled in my hand,
A notebook at the palm of my wrist, and thoughts eager to find rest on 
Paper lines.
There's just some comfort 
In knowing the never ending possibilities of words and the stories they hold.
How many heart breaks have they heard?
And how many tales
Have been left untold?
There's just some comfort 
In the concept of secrecy 
For words are locks only hearts hold the key to.
For words such as these 
Belong in chambers far beyond reach.
There's just some comfort 
In knowing that I have power in my words 
And that I hold words 
In my power.
