I Am, Therefore I Write

Jasmine yields sweet nectar

Birds sing from the trees

Writing is my nature

If I cease, I fail to be

Why write?

Wither and fade

into shadow

without light

suffocate

beneath the weight

of all that is life

if I don't write.

why

don't think of grandiose purpose

there's simply nothing else

i'd rather do than weave

words into stress and unpaid bills

vent

When I write

I don't have to feel emotions

in my body.

I won't get hurt,

so I vent fearlessly.

Voice

It's the only time I truly feel as though I have a voice that people listen to. I feel noticed.

I get to know myself

Writing makes me practice putting my emotions and thoughts into words. I understand myself better and I communicate more efficiently.

Tower of Babble

Because honestly I’d run out of air and friends talking out loud all the time.

If only I could draw....

INK

Because my face could not,

because in a moment words cannot be rehearsed.

I write with careful thought.

Communication first.

Escape

I express myself through writing

To escape anger and fighting.

A world of my own

I stand on my thrown.

Fear

I write the things I could never say. Things that cause others to look at me with distain... or fear.
