Why Write?

June 21, 2013

Poetry breathes life

the words that may cut like a knife

the deepeest hurts expressed

for those who are depressed

and also for those who write of the world's many wonders

their voice like a booming thunder

but perhaps poetry is written for something more simple

or to create a great ripple.

 

Poetry is written for many reasons:

to release people from their demons

to express life's many joys

to write love poems about boys

to capture nature's beauty

or other things that are more lovely

and most of all to show love to one's own religion, of which for me is Christianity

all of these things mentiioned are why I write poetry.
