Ink Spilling From the Heart

This is a poem I wrote about, well, writing! I hope you enjoy it!

When life seems to be 

Falling apart 

With no hope 

I write 

When I feel sadness

Tearing at my soul

Threatening to tear 

It to pieces 

I write 

When life’s irritations 

Get in the way 

I am about to scream 

I write 

When life seems perfect 

Nothing could be better 

A laugh bubbles over 

For no reason 

I write

Because when my heart 

Spills over with emotion 

It turns into ink 

And spills onto the page 

Making an impression 

No one can forget 

It sears in my brain

And then my mind 

And my soul 

Seem connected 

And God seems to fill 

The very ink spilling forth 

And it fills me 

With such hope 

Joy 

And peace 

To know He lives

In my soul

And that He uses 

My deepest pain 

And my deepest joy 

Even if I don’t 

See it at the time
