I'm tired of using poetry as my escape,
No matter how many times I escape I have to come back to face reality,
I never felt so alone in my life , but poetry always seem to comfort me,
It's like when I start to write I get wrapped up in a fatherly hug that I never felt before,
When I hear the words of one's poetry, I feel so enlighten that those words are for me ,
Those words give me the strength to keep on pushing,
Poetry is starting to consume my life, it's my family
I find the love and the care that I want within poetry,
This is something I love and it loves me back,
I'm not hurting anymore when I write but the pain comes back when I'm finished,
Poetry can't be my escape forever cause no matter what I'll always have to come back to reality,
I hate facing the real world but I also hate running from it,
I want to actually feel someone's arms wrapped around me instead of just these words I write,
The powerful words speak volumes to my soul and I don't want to let go,
