Go Back to the Pen    5/9/14


Go back to the pen. Is that what he said? Go back to the pen.

There was a time when all I needed was a pad and a pen. Then things changed and I got busy. But I need to go back to the pen.

When everything went wrong, and nothing was right I'd sit and I'd think, and then I'd write. Sometimes for hours, sometimes all night. It's time to go back to the pen.

It was never all good, but it always got better, after writing what sometimes ended up being a letter. I have to go back to the pen.

Not checking for grammar, not critiquing vocabulary, but just releasing emotions, and feelings that scared me. I want to go back to the pen.

I found a quiet comfort in just a book, or a pad, and a pen. I'd sit in a corner and the flood would just come. I'm gonna go back to the pen.

So I sat down last night, and just started to write. Seemed like I saw an old friend. And just like that, with no tit for tat, I did it!!!! I went back to the pen.

Here we are, two old friends, back together again, it seems like we never even parted. We are back to stay, I'm not going away, I am back, I came back to the pen.

I'm glad the Lion said, "Girl, go back to the pen," cause if not I may not have restarted. So I thank you my friend, with just that word said, I came back, yes I'm back with the pen.
