Yes you can! And I’m so glad you’re staying here with us, in writing world, and glad to be part of your support there. I’ve felt as you do, am constantly battling the same urge myself (why it’s sometimes so long between drinks – or poems – for me!) – but in the end, I think it’s part of who we are. Some years ago, during a very dark time for me, I found my way back through music. And now writing is again the way I’m trying to find my way through – even if I’m constantly battling myself on this. I’ve often felt recently the sadness of the world is weighing me down – but part of my agitation is that I haven’t felt able, or have avoided, trying to process it all in writing. And some of the hardest pieces I’ve had to write have also struck the deepest chords in others. So stay with us! And I’m glad you’ve decided to keep writing. ❤️
