Why do I Write?

June 4, 2013
Why do I write? Why do I breathe? Why do I fight? Why do babies teeth? It's the circle of life It's just how things go A man grows up, finds a wife If you don't cut your hair you'll grow a fro You have to find a way to be creative Just let it all out Be innovative Know what you're all about Laugh and smile Cry and frown Go the extra mile And never back down So why do I write? It lets me be me It helps me to break free And reach to the sky like a big oak tree
