i made some word changes, added some in as well. i am thinking or removing a stanza though.
its very easy -- to get obsessed, maybe you're obsessed with a show, or maybe a musician.
but getting obsessed ...with writing?
it can hurt.
because it becomes your only way to cope, to stay sane --
to be okay.
and its hard to open up to people after writing for so long, and having paper be the only one who truly understands.
its hard to be honest, and vulnerable about your feelings and opinions when writing them and softly stashing them into draws -- maybe books, under your mattress, is all you know.
i think i like the outcome so far, but im not too sure still. it feels all over the place..
