Inspiration
I’ve decided to write a little poem
In hopes, it’ll make your heart its home
Turning emotions into tar black
But in color they do not lack
Hope, love, fear and sorrow
Courage from a pen, I must borrow
The writer's blood turns into ink
Spill it all before I sink
Back into the safety of my quiet
Contain the fire, don’t let it riot
Maybe one day I’ll write again
Oh, how light my soul will be then
To the darkness I am drawn
Now, in your heart I must live on
