Why I write


Why I write is the question that’s been asked, Which I shall answer like poets in the past There are so many reasons I don’t know where to begin Other than I love the felling og the pen I write as a way to express myself And the people that enjoy my words, is how I count my wealth I write to show the world the things I see, When I write I’m in another world and I can be who I want to be I write because it takes me from the ground into the sky, And when I’m writing I’m on a poetic high I write to talk about my love and lust, But I’m free to write because “In my pen I trust” I can’t sing and I don’t like to fight, So to relief stress, is why I write From the grip of the pen to the vibration of the mic, Is the reason I write all night
