Spilt Ink (December 14, 2009)

Can't explain
Why the ink flows easier
With depression/anxiety onset.


Turning out poems
At what seems
A manic rate
For me.


Reaching parts
Of my soul
Locked tight.


Never sure
Who or what
Will emerge.


Often
Not understanding
Other’s reactions.


Whether
In joy or sorrow.


Wishing
I knew
Why.


Only seeing
String of letters
On the computer screen
Or written page.


Always
Questioning my ability
Never believing
It's good enough.
