Write it Down - Let it Go

She couldn’t write them down fast enough,

the damnable words swirling through her head,

vestiges of life lived.

The cacophony of mentation churning in her brain,

each raw inkling struggling for attention,

each open canker aching for release

from her stricken mind.

Overwhelmed by her own bitter frustration,

tears of exasperation stream down her cheeks,

each a salty memory of a moment or event,

staining the ink on the hastily written pages.

Get them out! Make a record!

Of the celebrations,

Of the tragedies,

Of life.

Free yourself from the torment that is roiling,

dare I say, ravaging, in your soul.

Write it down – let it go.
