Why I Write


There are many reasons for me to write.......I write to speak, not in a hear my voice listen to me but more of a this is burning inside of me and it needs to be set free because if its not i will be engulfed in a flame of words. I write to escape, because the daily life of the american teenager can get to hard to bear at points and so i create and escape, a world where i am not judged and i am not compared and my feelings flow out of me onto the paper like honey from a hive. I write to calm myself, for when the days come that I would kill the next person that even looks at me, a wonderful hate poem or tragic poem or writing is like my traquilizer. Like music is to others writing is my favorite thing about life and it needs to be cherished and i am one of those who finds it the most interesting, beautiful and greatest things in the world and cant wait to pick up a pen or pencil or chalk and let my feelings cancel out my mind and leave me buzzing with a sensation that I created a piece of work that nobody else has. This is why I write.
