Why?


Although it might be a surprise

That I have a secret

Usually nothing is scared

But I have managed to keep

My greatest love mine

Not because I'm embarrassed 

But cause I need

Something great just for me

To be able to express my self

With words and not be judged

To be seen as beautiful

Scars and all...

Don't be surprised 

When you find out

That I, great talker, have a secret

And its never to be shared

but explained by the battle scars I have

And thats

Why I write.
