Writing it Out

Writing it Out

A Poem by Melinda McQueen

Creating something

from absolutely nothing.

Yet, it has always been there

is forum of your mind, waiting to be shared.

 

A world all your own

can you seek and bestow.

A place where you are safe.

A place which bares your name.

 

When you want something,

give it wings

By laying it down...

writing it out.

 

Filling a page

with beauty and grace,

you are taken away

to a better place.

 

It sets you apart,

and forces you to listen to your heart.

It enables you to live in a world

where your thoughts turn into pearls. 

 

Molding word after word

until they become a mighty sword,

slaying every unspoken doubt

by writing it out.

Thank you for reading and leaving your review. God bless.
Great poem! You really showed what it is like to be a writer. You start out with a blanket page and when it strikes you can make art. Great poem =) Keep it up!!

I liked how you defined writing dear Melinda.
"Molding word after word
until they become a mighty sword,
slaying every unspoken doubt
by writing it out."
Writing is bleeding out our thoughts and emotions. Become our babies. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

I have felt fairly often that while I am writing, the creative process seeps into my life story and nagging problems in my personal life become more clear. The act of writing opens up more neurons to devise answers to life's questions. It's somewhat cathartic and cleansing, nicely conceived idea well written. take care...dan

Keep a note pad and pencil always handy. Have a thought...jot it down. A good line hits you...jot it down. Later these can be built into a write. Valentine

Sounds nice... but I'm unable to hand-write due to CP.
Melinda this describes writing so well and the feelings you have when you write. I feel the same way so often when I write but I'm in a dry spell right now.
