I Write...


I write to let go

I write to say no

I write to be heard

I write to hide behind written word.

 

I write for my freedom

I write for my soul

I write for my heart

I write for the polls.

 

I write in my room

I write in my school

I write in this state of mind

I write in fold of what I've left behind.

 

I write because it give me faith

I write because it helps me think

I write because I can't speak

I write because my voice is weak.

 

I write when I'm sad

I write when I'm mad

I write when no one can understand

I write when there's no more words to be said

 

Why do I write?

I write to let free my true identity.

I hope what I write you like to read,

but in the end,

 

I write for me.
