Late Nights

Late at night when I'm alone with my thoughts, I write I write about what's on my mind or what may be troubling me I write about people around me, how easily I can be touched by people in need or someone who may need a shoulder to cry on or a voice encouragement telling them everything will be alright I write about my life, the challenges, disappointments, some leaving behind scars that are slow to heal or may never will I write about love, awaiting that special someone lurking in the shadows, the one god has created just for me I write as an outlet, an expression, or a getaway, where on paper my mind is free to race, to take me where anything is possible.....in my dreams
