#thegreatwritingproject

So I don’t have to keep them in my head. 

Compartmentalize my issues, 

so they may run freely in the small boxes they are designated.

Every shelf is labeled accordingly, each box top opens easily

So I can look and remember what lives there.

Who lives there.

I want to write the great spectrum of humanity.

Love and pain and fear that lies dormant in our eyes and hearts.

To observe and make tangible the tiny secrets you don’t dare speak.

I want to write the great lengths of our minds, 

So I can find just how far it goes.
