Write On

I can't put the pen down 
All these thoughts in my head 
I have to get them out 
Before I run out of breathe

I get an idea up there
It can happen without notice
Then I have to write it down 
If not I cannot focus

That is how the magic begins 
When I write it's like a trance 
So when I feel the need 
I write when I get the chance

Which is everyday now
Sometimes I write a few
Some I keep to myself 
Others I share with you

But what makes it fun is
Seeing what I come up with
Shocked when I read them back
That it was me who wrote this

But all in all I am glad
That I  have found me something
To occupy my time with
Words that were once unseen

Here they are now written down
Clear for all to see 
I love to write these poems
These creations come from me

So thank you for listening
Hope you liked what you heard
If not I shall come up with 
Something else you'll like in words

New ideas always come my way
Inspiration I keep an eye on
So that my wheels can turn
And I can still write on
