I WRITE

The joyful The smile-fakers The simple The up to no good The believers The "special" The "I'm fine" The "I'm okay" The brave The strong The saved The depressed The emotionally unstable The people pleasers The liars The fighters The content For the broken For the self-harmers For the lonely For the estatic For the ones who never give up For the strangers For the stragglers For the ones who are too easily influenced For the ones who get too close For the mute; voiceless For the ones who don't know if they made the right decision For the ones who tremble at the thoughts of tomorrow For the ones who have failed to know how liberating it is to put a pen to paper and ignite To do those 26 letters that rule our tongues justice To bring emotions to life on the ones where feeling has become absent To give direction to the lost Aide the wondering To spell everything out To fill a spiral bound notebook with secrets that linger in my mind To teach To learn To inspire To be able to write will forever be a burning passion that lives in my heart I write for ALL I have mentioned and so many more But I also write simply for me I write when it gets too difficult to speak I write to reveal the truth that runs around in my mind To put those tireless thoughts to rest I write.
