Dear paper and pen
Sadness… been trying to reason with it
But it has a power of its own…
And its not because of you, or you, or you
But because everywhere I turn
Something negative is happening
Bring me down … making me sad
And only my paper and pen
To consol me….

Sadness…been trying to reason with it
But you have taken over my soul
You won’t be there for long
But for the time that you are
Help me understand
Why you linger in the darkness
Waiting for a weakness
To invade my every thought

another 'grand-powerful' and most fine 'write'!

the following likely triggers that  'bittersweet dejavu'
feeling in many (most?!) of us "poets" at least!:

"everywhere I turn
Something negative is happening
Bring me down … making me sad
And only my paper and pen
To consol me…."

much, MUCH applause!!

Sometimes the paper and
pen is our only friend.
