Why I Write


From the man in my back

To the chill in the rain

Through hardships and success, life has been pain

 

The pen is my prison

The pen is my mission

Through trials and tribulations, the pen will still listen

 

Through the hopes of today

Through the force of the waves

The pen is the reason I stay
