Found

I have found my sense of 'self' again.

 

There you are, I thought I lost you.

Where have you been all these years?

There is so much I have to tell you,

so much has happened since I have last seen you.

Where to begin?

Where to end?

I can't believe that in all of these years,

you are still there.

Silently waiting to be heard.

No longer do you have to be silent,

now you are heard with a open heart.

Dear heart, my dear love.

The pen truly is mightier than the sword.

The ability to write I thought was lost to me forever.

But now I know that in my sorrow and pain it is found again.

That is I can tell the world my story, that maybe,

they can learn from me, as I can from them.

I don't have to think about it,

it just flows from my soul to these pages.

These pages that are endless as the stars in the sky.

This heart that bleeds for one, and for all.

This heart, this pen,

shall pave the way for my imagination to be free.

Author's Note

It feels really good to be able to overcome a severe case of writers block. Enjoy.

A review would not even be any significance for this.
Do you remember 'The Wizard of Oz?' When Dorothy is visiting the Wizard,
in the beginning of the film, when he is the character 'Professor Marvel'?
I marvel at your words in wonder,
and I could hear Dorothy's voice at the end of this poem,
me saying to you,
"why...it's just like you could read what's inside of me..."

(which is why I haven't anything to say)

except this is very pretty, like the way true love's first kiss glistens under the sun,
like two special people,
made for each other, by God, as ONE.

"there you are, I thought I lost you..."

this made me cry.
Please write more!
(I) haven't gone anywhere.
I am here,
always.
