Creativity

Creativity,
Has always been something dear to me
Something that if I was blinded 
Helped me see more clearly 

Whether it was to write or to dance 
To sing or to draw 
I take any chance,
By heart 

Everyone has their own type of way 
To handle stress 
Some go Astray
Indulge in drugs, alcohol and sex
Others, go to buy that expensive dress 
That They've wanted for so long
but can't actually afford 

I've been lucky enough to express my emotions on a piece of paper 
That I have some reminder for later 
In case I forget
how I felt and need a rain-check 
That there is something left 
That I can hold onto 
And not just that 
It's something I can be proud of 
Something that shows me 
I am good for something 
That I can be 
Of use 
That's what I had been looking for so desperately 
And I found it in creativity
