My secret place to write



My secret place to write.
I thank god for shining his light.
There’s no hesitation in my inspiration. My complex thoughts are a picture of my mind’s need of constant creation. I’m blessed for this constant elevation. It gives me a revelation I need to continue this escalation of my constant need of creation.

I bring my thoughts to light.
I often write from my bed at night.
My ability to write comes from my heightened senses.
I feel things, see things a little deeper than most.  

Sounds weird I know.
It’s ok to be a little different than most.

Writing to me is as easy as breathing
Before I lose the ability to write I’d rather stop speaking.

Meanwhile I’ll continue thinking
deeply.

About this poem

There’s an area in Fairmount Park (Philadelphia) where I sit and write. Nature inspires me.
