Writing is connection,
that’s what it’s for,
you take a chance,
you open your mind,
then you open the door.

Sometimes the door’s not answered,
but other times it is,
and in either case
you’ve taken the chance,
whatever ’tis, ’tis.

You’ve shared your soul,
you won’t grow old
with everything bottled inside you,
be it joy, be it grief 
you’ve been bold.

And do you feel all better,
not necessarily so,
but feelings sometimes run
to catch up with what is,
be glad you’ve given it a go.

Somewhere out there
someone has felt just like you,
someone has read what you wrote
and agrees 
it is so true.

And so you’re not alone now,
others have felt the same,
and others have made it through
this thing we call life,
this magnificent game.
