When You All Write

When You All Write

A Poem by Madeleine Celeste
"

awsedrftyguh I have nothing. I've started kind of a poetry craze in my circle of friends and this is what I'm taking from it. Something grand and nature-y because I missed writing about that.

"
I see your hearts spilled on these pages
Cursive laced with poison and with passion
And I think

Yes.
Yes, write.

Write, because it is a relief.
Write, because it is the only way you are going to face your fears.
Write, because otherwise, you would never put your heart this far out on the line.
Write, because you want to connect.
Write, because there are bridges you cannot burn without it.
Write, because it is painful.
Write, because it is exhausting.
Write, because it is the safest addiction to come circling, spiraling back to.
Write, because sometimes you don't dare to cry.
Write, because the world is horrible.
Write, because the world is beautiful.
Write, because love still doesn't make sense.
Write, because you miss someone.
Write, because it's the only way to say things you need to say.
Write, because it will all still be there.
Write, because every beautiful, horrible, written word is, or was once, a part of you.

Write for good.

Write, to see the clouds and be inspired.
Write, to seek what goes typically unseen.
Write, to look a little deeper into the stars.
Write, to wonder just what perfect color would describe the moon.
Write, to become closer to the world.
Write, to look down at that one perfect line you scribbled on your hand, to nod, to remember.
Write, to feel thunder course through your veins
Write, to forget how it feels to not have your fingers flying across a keyboard.
Write, to yearn for sunshine and birdsong and things you used to ignore.
Write, to discover a word you never knew, that you love.
Write, to feel like you can change the world.
Write, to learn things you never knew or never wanted to know.
Write, to tell someone you love them.
Write, to tell someone you're sorry.
Write, to tell the world you will come back stronger than ever.
Write, to feel, and be surrounded.
Write, to see what was already inside of you.
Write, to see what you don't even know about yourself.

Please.
Just write.
