Window of Words
Location
I write
--because I feel
To their deaf ears, my audible pleas have no appeal.
I write
--because I need to see
It's easier to pen the words that my mouth won't speak.
I write
--because I am alone
My family is around me and it's still an empty home.
I write
--because it alleviates the pain
It's the one thing that allows me to feel sane.
I write
--because I am free
No one in the world can take my words from me.
I write
--because I am driven
The pen is in my hand and my heart is on a mission.
I write
--in hopes that you may find
Some piece of understanding or a window into my mind.
