About this ebook
I dont have to watch my language or be in control of myself.
I can write all of the feelings I cannot otherwise express.
I can write what I cannot say.
My pen speaks to the paper for me.
When I am not ok, I can see myself think.
I can write what I would really do, what my opinion really is,
how my day really went.
I can throw all of my tearful words at my paper and it catches them.
But it never hurls them back at me.
I can write all of the feelings I cannot otherwise express.
I can write what I cannot say.
My pen speaks to the paper for me.
When I am not ok, I can see myself think.
I can write what I would really do, what my opinion really is,
how my day really went.
I can throw all of my tearful words at my paper and it catches them.
But it never hurls them back at me.
