Word Obsessive

I'm minorly obsessive
I really love to write
And if I've had a good idea
Be it morning, noon or night
I can't help it, out comes the pad
Waiting for inspired ink
To flow onto its blank white pages
A canvas for whatever I think
I've written on napkins before
And once, on some wallpaper shreds
(we were redecorating a room)
I've written whatever invaded my head
I've written on a bus timetable
You can bet that caused confusion
I'm busy furiously scribbling
People think I suffer from delusions!
Well my imagination works hard
It's very overactive
Some people find it ridiculous
And others think its attractive
If I'm honest I don't mind
People can think what they choose
As long as I get the pen I request
For an idea I don't want to lose
This writing makes me joyous
It gives me something to do
When I lie awake in the early hours
Or when I'm upset and blue
It's a place for me to let go
When my heart-cup over spills
It allows me a sense of purpose
It provides me with thrills
So yes it may be obsession
I admit that I'm addicted
But I will write till my dying day
When from this earth I'm evicted!

No Offence

My poems are thoughts. That come from my mind. Some of them dirty. Some can be kind. I can write fiction. Or even the truth. My sexual poems. Go through the roof. Sometimes you won't like.

Poetic License!

So apparently I need to learn to rhyme, So what if I can't it's not a crime, Maybe I need to go back to school, Then over lyrical perfection I can drool, Or maybe I just write what I feel, That way...

Writing Off The Top Of My Head

Flow. Like the sea and the sand and a pen in my hand, Flow. Like the stars and the moon lighting up the gloom, Flow. I hope these words never stop else I think I will pop, Flow.

I Write To Express

I write for the sheer joy of expressing myself. A palette of words to paint a thought. A feast for your palate adventures have brought. To have you cry with me. Or share in my laughter.
