Why I Write


Why do I write? I write to let the words take control and allow the feelings to ease out. I write because the ink and the keys can speak more than just the mouth. I write because sometimes this is the only way words will come out. When I write, I pour my everything into the words I want you to see what I see Think emotionally . . . I want you to feel me. I write to be heard and seen Creatively Writing is my expression . . . and the words just flow freely.

This fantastic, and I totally identify. Poetry is explanation for the sounds and stories in your end, the things you can't explain because if you try, it takes the magic out of life.
