Freedom


there is a saying, "The pen is mightier than the sword" and if it is true, then i am one of the most powerful young women here.

i write because i have alot to say, but sometimes can't find the words to express infront on a crowd.

i write to relieve emotions that are too big to share on another, writing allows me to express more of myself than i thought i had.

i write for the child that thinks they don't have a voice to express to someone,

i write for the people who have fallen and been crushed by others claiming to love them,

i write for the youth that feel confined to society's old standards and won't allow a little change,

i write for that parent who doesn't know which way to go when there is trouble in every direction,

i write for that lost soul that wishes to be guided by someone truly spiritual,

i write for the parent that wishes they could have been there for their child(ren) life(lives) but wasn't,

i write for the man that wakes up every day with something bothering him on his mind,

i write for the woman that wishes things would go her way and stay her way, even though she is not always right,

i write for the young girls that believe they know what love is, but at times are in love with the idea of love,

i write for the young men who desire love and affection, but are getting it from places that they should not be at,

i write for the beautiful young lady that finds it so hard to understand why she is put through so many trials,

i write for the brave young man that seeks to protect his family, friends, and self when danger is on the verge and questions the consequences of his actions.

I WRITE FOR ME!!    I AM AN INTERCESOR!!   I CAN FEEL AND IMAGINE WHAT EACH ONE GOES THROUGH AND I WRITE FOR THEM, WHEN THEY BELIEVE THEY CAN'T!!!

 

                  THIS.IS WHY I WRITE........... MY PEN IS MIGHTIER THAN LIFE'S SWORD
