A New Craft

I didn't know I had it in me
Never saw it there before
It makes me kind of wonder
Where it went before

The words just keep on flowing
From deep inside of me
Seems like they've been locked up
Dying to break free

I've always been quite crafty
At making things you see
But now I'm weaving patterns
Of thoughts inside of me

Crocheting words together
A lace of joy and pain
Putting thoughts in writing
Seems to take away the strain

For it is a stress reliever
A therapy, you see
A way to be creative
That's really good for me

So now when I'm creating
Weaving words that come from me
I'm finding things about myself
That I never used to see
