I Write, Wrote, Have Written, Will Write...Much More


I've been asked why I write, And to that I must reply, To this question in quite, "If I" format as to why... So I begin.... I write because, if I didn't, How else would I be able to explain How it felt when I stood in the rain, Or the imminent emotion that I felt that since I still have this feeling, Even now, All this comes from concealing Emotions to how I am able to write even now. How do you explain yourself to others, Whether it seems like it will be a bother, To them or those around, I somehow found That when I write, I see, All the things around me, Freely in height And depths of why I would write, Or how I would write, Or when I would write, That it just feels right to write. Because when I write I feel like I can truly be myself, And nobody else, Can take that away from me, For I am free.
