I write to laugh, I write to cry
I write to make sense of all that has happened and to quiet the “whys”
I write to deal with the future, I write to deal with the past
I write to deal with the present and deal with the feelings I had last
I write to forget, I write to face some regrets
I write to find strength to face the “what the hell do I do next”
I write so that my broken heart can trust again in a being that I can’t see
I write to accept a destiny that wasn’t a part of my dreams
I write to find strength to continue this journey called life
I write to find the answers to all the wrongs because I’m justified in my rights
I write for clarity and to deal with the hurts that I can’t change
I write for a fragile heart cause by others pain for which I’m still partly the blame
I write to go beyond the limitations place on me by the powers-that-be
I write to feel the free that only ink seems to give to me
I write to silence the lies, I write to embrace the truth
I write to regain my faith the way I first believed in the days of my youth
I write to find a bottom to these endless tears
I write to deal with the anger I have suppress down through the years
I write to release, I write to find peace
I write to find relief maybe then my mind will let my body sleep
I write for directions and maybe then I will know where I am going
I write so that I won’t become bitter under the Lord’s molding and forging
I write to heal from life’s new incisions
I write for freedom from depression’s faithful prison
I write to learn the lesson in another of life’s session
I write to past the testing and so I may receive the ultimate blessing
I write to find words to express how I feel through life’s ordeal
I write to reveal what the heart conceals
I write to give life to experiences, to ease the pain and to give love a voice
I write because it’s who I am, it’s not an option, nor is it a choice
