She was right
When she said it’s good
That I pour my heart out
On paper.
But I tend to think
That the reasons I do
Aren’t so good.
Yet I do it anyway
Because it seems to be
A sort of thing I can’t
Escape.
And the sort of thing
Some people wish
They could slip into.
But sometimes,
In order to get
That perfect line
Or that perfect feeling,
It takes a certain
Level of sadness
And distance from
Reality.
The ability to see the world
From a certain stand point.
That stand point
being, one’s own experience
With their existance.
It is that which creates
A universal acceptance
Of a line, word, or
Entire emotion.
It is then, that
What you felt
At that exact moment
In time,
Can be felt by many
A multitude of moments
Down the road.
And with this comes
A state of satisfaction
And beauty.
The beauty of being able
To connect with a stranger.
And the satisfaction
Of knowing –
That your experience
And your emotions
Can create such beauty.
