Today when I write...

I want to write today, but I don't know what. I know why I want to write-because it gives me the freedom and power to create something. But what do I want to write?
Do I want to write what I feel today? I am angry, happy, confused; yet I cannot write that. The writer in me wants to show not tell.
I want to smash a plate on the wall, break a glass, punch a pillow and walk with swift firm steps with my eyes fixated intently on the ground.
I want to jump high so that can touch the sky, smell flowers and then sing out loud to my favorite songs.
I look at everything around me and see that everything looks like a giant jigsaw puzzle and none of the pieces fit right. I'm turning them and pushing them together and even succeed with two, but the third won't fit.
So what do I write today? I want to write what I feel today, not what I've felt for the past few days-an emotional graph of highs and steep lows.
Today I feel like nothing seems like it is in place, but I walk with firm steps and hum my favorite song.
