Why I write?


I write for the same reasons why you breathe it comes naturally. Well actually I write to open new doors I write to free my mind and in the same process free yours. I write, cause it’s a way to escape I write cause it’s innate it’s in my blood and it’s my fate to get on a stage express my rage, show you God and the ways to reach his gates. See not too long ago I found them ways myself, steady struggling days and a hand with no spades is what I was dealt and with no clue what to do I felt.. I was going to lose. But still I played my cards, and when I waked I stepped with God and when I couldn’t walk no more He gave me a lift. I write because God gave me the gift, to express my words through my spirit, and if I talk then your hear it, if you listen your feel it. I write because it’s therapeutic. It relieves my stress and I don’t know which other way to go to do it.
