Why I Write

June 14, 2013

I write so my rapid thoughts have release I write so my heart can find some peace I write to free my mind of the anxiety and depression I write because it's my own personal expression I write to ease the pain in my soul I write to help fill the vacant hole I write because of the scars on my arm I write before I cause anymore harm I write for me and no one else but one day i pray i'll write to help someone other than myself

<p>Writing is an excellent outlet. I can only wish for you to write more. Write about something that pen and paper has helped you through, and I'm sure you will inspire many to do the same</p>
