I Type
This is my escape from the lie I'm living
 I used to write with a pen in hand but then when I traveled back to reality writing with a pen just isn't practical, my mother would notice that I'm not writing out an English paragraph
 So I type
 Type out my feelings
 Even if their just fragments of what I'm trying to hide from the world
 
 I type to save  my troubled family
 Inside our brick walls were more f--ked up then what you could believe
 She sighs it off "you have no idea" she explains
 Then show me.
 I want you to show me
 
 I type to find my friends
 Their trapped in my school long after the bell rings
 Their suck there, breathing in the expo markers, litterly and figuratively
 Deciding weather their going to follow their own path or the one less traveled on
 
 I Type to remind myself that I have feelings
 Some days I know that cant possibly be true
 I type to show myself I have some talent
 I re-read an hour later
 You cant imagine how many horrible experience  I have deleted off my keyboard
 
 And I type for you
 Talent beyond all means
 Cliché as it seems
 Baby  you’re my sunshine
 Making me feel like the 8 year old in the sunflower dress
 Stepping into my mothers old life
 Her molding the edges out with a fine-tooth comb
 You make me happy.
 
 I type because amazing poetry does not have to have fantastic adjectives like essays MUST have
 I type because I read six billion secrets and cant believe my life isn't that f--ked up but I feel the same
 I type because its my escape
 I type because this is my escape from this lie I'm living
