The Power of the Written Word

My fiancé and I just discovered that he and I both have written poetry in the hard times of our lives, and also in some of the best times of our lives. In order for him to understand a very trying period in my life, I sent him a few of my poems that were created in moments of pain and intense feeling. I feel that they probably communicated something that could not be told in any other way. In fact, now he wants to share some of his poems with me. I’m so glad that writing and poetry have been such a big thing in both our lives. That is the power of the written word.
