My Voice
Why do I write?
The question is really why not write?
Why not enlight?
Why not let people look through your microscope and see your insight?
I come from a struggle where you have to fight to stay alive,
not physically but mentally where there is no heat, no electricity, and you fight the urge to put chrome to your dome and send your soul to the sky.
However, if you look at the standardize,
we are all unconsciously from the time we are born making plans to die.
But provacatively try to make sure our wealth is amplified, thinking money makes the mind magnified.
Still we get lost in the hands of time, so I make sure my lines show that I embrace my responsibility to create the grand design,
That even though I need a scholarship, I really just want to educate those that lack the competenance to seperate real from fantasize.
I bring out the truth,
to prevent the demise of our youth.
I write because this is my choice,
I have the responsibility to change lives and I do that through my voice.
