TO BE HEARD??.... Or not to be heard... That is the Question!!

There are sooooo many reasons to write.

The possibilities never end!

Whether people write to prove a point

Or they write because they have feelings to mend.

 

Some people write just because they must,

Like when there's some type of homework due.

Others may write for reasons

That lead to their work being viewed.

 

Like people may write politically

So Obama may see an issue

But what is the reason I write?

I'll actually write tell you.

 

I write for many different reasons:

One specific one is to express my mind.

When I feel that no one is listening

Poetry is there at any time.

 

It's an easy way to write down

All the feelings you may have inside.

When your friends and family happen to disappear,

Pen and paper will never run and hide.

 

I may type up a page

Just to vent how I've had a crappy day.

It makes me feel so much better

Letting out all the things I need to say.

 

I've realized now-a-days

People don't really care about others.

They care more for themselves

Instead of caring for each other.

 

People may write or type

To impress a teacher or for some kind of test

But I happen to write because

It helps me get feelings off my chest.

 

When I'm having a really great day

I need to type it all down.

Typing everything that I've gone through

Just brings that great day back around.

 

It helps me to recap

And remember all the fun I had

So that the second time around while I'm typing

I can feel twice as glad.

 

So in conclusion,

Do I write so that I may be heard?

Do I type for specific people?

Do I say meaningless words?

 

I personally write for fun

To express my feelings or my day

Because It's so much more fun when

You can say whatever you want to say.

 

Being able to write my flaws

With no one telling me that something is WRONG

Makes it easier to accept myself

And builds my self-esteem to make it strong!
