Why I Write
A girl once asked me
“What are you good at?”
And I replied with
“Words.”
To express myself without being misunderstood
Judged
Ridiculed
That is why I write
Poetry gives me the gateway to
Explore the deepest crevices of human emotion
Possible without limitations
Free from any obligations to conform to the status quo
I CAN YELL
I can cry
Be angry, scream, shout
REJOICE! With happiness
Most importantly I can tell a story
Through my poetry
And that is why I write
