Why I Write .....


 

The reason why I write

Is to let the world know

How beautiful is this sight

The life of darkness and sorrow

 

I write to express my feelings

To get away from the pain

To stop my eyes from tearing

And to remove this dark stain

 

I write to fight the ghost

The ghost of hatred and dark

To bring the light of what I love the most

The light of the joyful spark

 

Writing is a relief

The reason why people smile

When their happiness changes faster than the color of a leaf

Instead of gathering a watery pile
