Don't Tell Me
People ask me time and time again why I don’t write.
But just because I’m smart, can put words together well, & can spell
Does not imply that I like to write.
Yes, I can do it.
I do write,
Just not as often as people would like me to
Or in the way they want me to.
The other problem I have with writing is,
Since it is a form of media,
It is expected to be shared,
Shared at one point or another.
I have gone through my entire life
Up till this point
Thinking that some people are supposed to be heard,
Others are not.
I am one of the ones who was meant not to be heard.
There are many reasons that this could be,
Which one it is I don’t have the slightest clue.
The purpose of all this is to say,
I do write,
Sometimes I even enjoy it
Especially as a way to clear my head.
I do write, but not for you.
