Finding Myself through Writing


I write to free my mind

To suprise myself with what I find

It gives me wings

So I may escape and be alone on the sea

 

I write to free my heart

From those who tore it apart

It gives me shelter

So I may get better

 

I write to free myself of pain

To make it through the rain

It gives me a sword

So I may move on

 

But most of all I write to get away

To create a fantasy

To find what makes me me
