Why Do I Write?
I write to find
To be you
To be me
I write because the words are begging to flow through me
The words need to escape
TO be free
I write to fly
And cry
And die,
without dying, without crying, without flying,
with
out
lying
I write to leave
To stop the noise and the heaviness in my head
The panic ready to spill out in sobs
The fear tingling in my fingertips
I need to leave
I need to go
I'm scared to stay here
I don't know what to do
I write to find worlds,
people,
lives,
magic,
within myself
I write to love,
To love everything,
and everyone,
and nothing,
and no one.
I write to care
About myself,
about my family,
my friends.
About something
I write to breathe,
to feel,
to try.
