𝐈 𝐃𝐎𝐍'𝐓 𝐖𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐄 𝐏𝐎𝐄𝐓𝐑𝐘:

I don’t write poetry.

I write fragmented sentences.

I write repetitive sentences.

I add line breaks where I need them.

I don’t write poetry.

I write uncontrollably.

Seven weeks without a word.

Seven weeks feeling guilty.

Seven weeks pent up.

And suddenly it all spills out.

Every feeling I couldn’t vocalize

Every thought I couldn’t write

I still can’t process it.

I don’t write poetry.

But my hands start to work again

And something spills out.

I am raw

The air has been knocked from my lungs

I get punched in the stomach when I think about it

But when my finger tips become raw

Maybe something will feel alright inside.
