My Refuge

 

- of course poetry is a very nice artful thing, but my writing has never been that or has it ever been presented as being that either... 

 

Writing has always been a way for me :

 

To process ;

To explain ;

To word out the unwordable ;

To try to make sense of the senseless seen or lived.

 

When life's circumstances were or are simply too overwhelming ;

When the painful anguish's enough to make you want to quit ;

When there are no recourses or solutions but only time for 'healing' ;

When isolated 'cause talking of horrors causes inevitable discomfort.

 

I don't write so much about these things anymore,

'Cause life has found a way to improve and move on.

But the processing still remains a big part of it all,

And I really don't know how I'd have coped without.

 

Writing has always been there for me through it all.

I truly love “to word out the unwordable”. I want this as a desk sign. A really nice exposition of the thorny problem we all try to work out around catharsis.

My refuge, too. Being largely inarticulate in person, writing offers a way to better express myself. The trick is not to take it, or myself, too seriously.
