Catch Me

How writing and I found each other.

When life was going haywire

You were there to catch me

To hold me,

To stand me upright,

You caught me from living a life

That could possibly be like

A toppling staircase,

A point of no return

When you caught me

You showed me there is more to life

Than letting it pass me by

Life can be more than a played out

Sitcom,

It can be a story I create,

I'm the director of

Catch me,

Hold me,

Steer me,

So I know where I'm going

Catch me,

Don't let me fall back

To where I use to be

When you caught me

You showed me a life

That I have never seen before, 

You handed me a pen and said

"You better start writing your story..."

And so I did...

Now its a habit 

I can't break,

Its a secret addiction

But a good addiction indeed

When you caught  me

You made my life

All the more better,

Thank you so much for catching me...

I love these lines .. I really believe it's us who write our own fate .. we decide where to go, what will happen to us etc, we just have to make the right choices. The poem overall was good and it is always comforting to have somebody to give us advice and help us as we are in this journey of life.

I'm pretty sure a lot of people here can relate to this. I think you ended this very nicely

I think it really explains how writing has helped you grow. Really inspirational when you think about it.

Great work! What a wonderful addiction...nothing better than writing. Keep on penning.

i love the second less stanza,
work on your grammar,
though further it is a perfect piece

[Chlowls]

Very strong undertones here and you've captured that emotional bond that us writers have to our writing perfectly.

I'd say my favorite lines are:
'You handed me a pen and said
"You better start writing your story..."
And so I did...'
