I know that my late night writing may be so frustrating but I hope you know that it is what helps with all of my anxiety.

“You need to rest” 

Yes, this I know but this writers mind has me so restless. 

These personalities are constantly countering one another, only creating art to ease the negativity weighing down on fragile heart. 

This scatterbrain of a Gemini fabricates a hurricane of thoughts and emotions tearing through all these pages keeping me up at night. 

There is no perception of time when I write. 

Through all these emotions, the good, the bad, I write until morning light. 

I can’t keep it all in so I’ll write and write because it is what feels right. 

To you, it may seem to be a waste of time but to those that take the time to read these words of mine take a step into this writers’ mind of mine. 

I open the gates to the labyrinth hidden behind this big smile and squinty eyes leading you through the maze with all these words I say. 

Do you dare enter? 

You’ll get lost it may seem but follow me as I draw you a map built in all of these rhyme schemes. 

These late nights I am up writing may be frustrating but you need to realize this is how I’m coping. 

These late nights I am up writing are no waste of time. 

These late nights I am up writing figuring out myself out draining these thoughts from my mind.

These late nights; Oh, these late nights.
