Dandelion Lines

My pen rights my sins
I can admit my faults 
Time and time again 
Writing finds me when lost 

That’s the fun of it
To lose myself in my pages
If dark then find me lit
By the enchanting words and phrases

I’m embarrassed to admit
Often I don’t think at all
Pink pen seems to vomit
And journal catches it raw

You can read my mahogany mind
Running rabid in the nighttime
Perhaps the best time to create
And escape the world and fate

Music is poetry with sound
Universal is it language like love
Turning smiles from frowns
Perhaps creating turquoise trust

So when I’m at a loss 
At my wits end as they say
Music or poetry a toss
To come whisk me to safe place
