I Think I'M Done

Some days, I think I’m done,
    that I just can’t write anymore.
Then the words
    begin to race through my eyes
down to my hand
    and find their way here
	to paper
	as if they were of some importance.
I am not sure
	what purpose or meaning
	that writing serves me
but it does somehow
	release thoughts and experiences,
	releaves loss and heartache.
In some small way
	it gives me hope
	in searching for faith
and understanding
	of what is left undone in my life
	and for that which
I am still in need and searching for.

So true, DM. we can go for days without a thought we feel worth writing, and then so full of inspiration we can't find enough paper! Well done.
