I want to write. I want my voice to mean something – something more than the words in my head; something more than the words in my heart.
I want to write. I want words to fall like tears to the page – sweet, salty – full of emotion.
I want to write. I want to give voice to that which has none.
I want to write. I want to put words to the beauty that I see; the beauty that I live – even when it is hard to recognize – to find value. Words do that don’t they? Give value to the hidden.
I want to write. It is more than a want…it is a need. Because when my words fall short of the page – my heart remains hidden.
Words uncover me.
Love this!!!
Thanks Machaela!
♥♥♥ this.
Thanks friend! {{hugs}}
Denise, this is beautiful. I especially love the last two lines. So true.
Thanks Christina!
“Words uncover me.”….I love this. I am finding the same thing as I just go for it with writing. I am finding that it is uncovering what I suspected was there all along. It is affirming those things, leaving less doubt about who I am. Thanks for your contribution to FMF. I also joined a day late. 🙂 Glad you didn’t stay away. I enjoyed your post and your blog is quite beautiful.
Thank you Lisa. It is a process – writing – uncovering – exposing. Learning to to let the words flow from within is dangerous and incredible.
Hi Denise
This is such a beautiful post. Brief… but enough. And expresses so much in just a few lines.
I came here today… it’s been a while. But when I posted my latest blog entry, somehow, I was thinking of you. Am still in VA… wish there was a way we could meet.
Love
Lidia
I know that face!
What a beautiful space you have here, Denise. And what a blessing to meet you this weekend and hug on you a little. I’m looking forward to reading more of your beautiful words and staying in touch better :). Let the uncovering begin.
