I always want to write when I have no time
it’s like the words flow through my mind
onnecting –
forming poetry
that disconnects me from my current reality

I always want to write when I have no time
it’s like the urge to escape is unbounding
leaving my tired mind pulsing,
anting,
waiting
for release

I always want to write when I have no time
it’s like my heart is crying,
hoping,
raying
to be tapped into
to be broken open so it can spill out onto the blank pages of the notebook I always keep with me

I always want to write when I have no time
it’s like the world is telling me to stop –
to listen
to give in to the sensation
to breathe
