Why I Write

The words I wrote.

They made me hyped.

I jumped so high.

Full of delight.

But then I crashed.

I fell so hard.

I wrote again.

No longer mad.

Thanks for sharing this. May I share with you God's love, expressed in John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." God bless you.

spontaneous poetic words come for awaking inside of a sleeping heart!

Clever poem. It seems there is all this excess energy when we are mad. And then when we get all the excess energy it dissipates. And no more madness. I hope you read my poems!

Sounds like the 'yo-yo' effect there. Welcome, Asher! :) gw
