Born For It


I write because I was born to do it like We are all born to breathe and love and hope and dream. To live and die. I write because of the voices screaming inside of me Because there are stories that need telling people that need saving I'm not a hero but a messenger I write for you and for me To kill the hurt inside To speak my mind To find a place, a home, someone that loves me Someone that loves us. I write because it's not just my right it's my duty to keep this pen pressed to the paper I was born to breathe life into empty pages. We will not be silent.
