Why she wrote
nothing beats gripping a pen in hand and scribbling on the page nothing beats finally sharing it with the world nothing beats having people listen because they want to not because somebody forced them. nothing beats adding punctuation only when you feel like it nothing beats deciding when to start a new line for your own reasons that nobody else knows. nothing beats watching them try to figure it out to figure you out. nothing beats always having someone to listen and not needing a response nothing beats metaphors that mean something different to everyone who reads them nothing beats jumbling it all together so they can tear it all apart without breaking it
