My Pen and Pad of Paper

My pen and my paper,
it's all that i need,
when i want to fuel minds, 
and set sad souls free,
when I'm feeling depressed and lonely,
and my heart begins to bleed,
I drop ink on my paper pad,
and my pen begins to lead.

It leads me away from reality,
the sadness, spite, and greed,
it takes me away to a far away place
where there is no want or need.
There are no limits or boundaries,
my imagination is set free,
if only life were as easy,
we'd all be happy, and carefree.

I always carry my pencil and paper in case inspiration hits me and I would struggle to remember the lines that appear - best thing I ever did was begin to write its helped me through the worst period of my life:-) hugs Jan xx
