So, you ask me why I write
Why the flow of words poetically come from my brain to the sheet of paper?
Why when my heart overflows with joy or sadness I grab a piece of paper?
Why is it that when I am in love I want to express it with words?
So, you ask me why I write?
It is a gateway to the deepest feelings I can't say out loud
It's the words I keep in the deepest part of my soul
The thing that I want to express but my lips can't for them
Only when the pencil hits the paper is the only time those feelings come alive
Every word that I mean to say seems to come out like I am a poetic genius
Each play of words coming out to match what I mean to say
How I mean to feel
What I mean to express
So, you ask me why I write?
Well, I ask you why not?
