I Write


Because I am weak, Because I am strong, I write To destroy evil, To create beauty, I write Because of peace, Because of turmoil, I write To learn, To give, I write Because of pain, Because it heals, I write To free anger, To capture joy, I write Because it fuels me, Because it soothes, I write To explore new worlds, To re-live old ones, I write Because I live, Because we all die, I write To express myself, To impact others, I write Because it is a gift, Too precious to waste, Too powerful to misuse, Too captivating to hide, I write
