This is Why


To maintain inner peace,
Allowing all chaos to cease
That is why I write

Taking action using my words,
Advocating my thoughts to be be heard
That is why I write


To love, to lose, to know how it feels,
For all my wounds to finally be healed
That is why I write

Creating the impossible to a perfection,
Simplizing my worlds complexion
That is why I write

How do you write?
What do you write?
Why do you write?
