Write It Out

Goodbye to what I thought was real Learning the hard way, once again Goodbye to what I thought was respect What I thought was care To what I thought was knowing me, some! Not fully, but the care I have to give Now you twist me into something I’m not From a situation apart from yourself It has hurt terribly and will for a while But, I will get beyond it, as I always do I will mainly do what I have done all my life Write it out, write and write and write Heidi Sands 9/1/17

I have 2 hrs my friend, they gave me privileges! I will be on the Soup for the whole time until Monday when I get back to school, then I will have to use those hours for that, and Emma will have to get back on for me...she's so special, I love her! (She went out with her girlfriends last night, and had a lot of fun...I'm glad she did)...I loved reading your incredible poem this morning Heidi! You are writing masterfully these days! Such a beautiful message, write! Great work my friend!!

Yes, I too find writing therapeutic! But the real question is: why do we need to do so? That we all have our own reasons! Keep writing, Heidi
