Poetry/Free Verse/My Obsession Is Writing Copyright Protected, ID 03-1615-721-18 All Rights Reserved, 2021, Constance La France
I have always had an urge to write_ have something to say- something to tell words shake the ocean of my sleep . . . and I must let them pour out so, I put pen to paper . . . (or fingers to keyboard these days) and tap my creative potential with time have found my inner voice- writing is music to my soul it fulfills a need in me nothing else can . . . from my innermost thoughts I pen poetry of life, grief and sorrow with beauty and imagery I express my feelings I write of the scars on the roadmap of my soul- the shadows on my wall like a letter to the world I expose my broken heart- it is my obsession its a voyage of self discovery . . . my writing is a legacy to be left when gone writing came to me a guest unbidden- I am not sure why the power of the pen for me it is like breathing . . . I write, I weep at what I have written but cannot stop this writing obsession and will not till I can no longer hold a pen then, I will write in my head until my mind fades away . . .
