"Why I Write"

June 27, 2013

I write to show the world, there is hope for the youth,

I write to show the world that we don't speak lies, but the truth.

I write to be heard from people who do not want to hear,

I write to give hope, for the people who fear.

I write to strive for change, when change needs to be done,

I write to show people with thoughts, they aren't the only one.

I write to keep the sophistication in this country at it's peak,

I write to give voice, to the ones who are afraid to speak.
