Storm Before The Calm

How many times has this been said before?
I sit and count and wait for it to stop.
Moaning and graoning, rattle my windows,
Let the rain drown that problem,
I have with you?
No, not at all.
Off the rails- it''s not a new thing.
Nor is it big.
I'm drinking to forget about how much I drink.
Seeking love elsewhere, who knew you'd lie?
A friend, a lifeline, a handhold.
Keep my head above water as
The hurricance dies down.

Ahh, hun im loving all these poems they are amazing. I can relate to them- friends are what keep me sane! The amount of times my dad goes "how may times have i told you...", it gets boring and repetitive.
Do you just write these when they come to you, or do you have to sit down an think for ages?
