Many Things

This will be my armour, my shield, my talisman. 

This will bear me through hard times.

This will be my voice.

With this, I am bold.

With this, I am strong.

With this, I am alive.

If I am lost, it will guide me.

If I am hurt, this will heal me.

If I am alone, this will be my friend.

It takes me high.

It lets me fall. 

It catches me.

It is my freedom

It is my dreams

It is my escape

It is my pen.
