This is Why I Write

In order to write something, you must feel
The thoughts floating inside your head must give you a rush to express
Everything inside of you must build up and explode
That is when I know my meaning is true

It's not what I have to say
It's what I say to think
It's my voice inside, spilling out with stamped words
My meaning behind open eyes

Without needing to explain to anyone but myself how I feel
It's the visual communication of my inner thoughts for my eyes to read
How I feel, what I think, my humour and my frustrations

Let everything go, get it off your chest and write it down
Write it with tears, laughter or pain
No matter what it's your's, no right or wrong

Cleanse my mind
Cleanse my doubts
Dig down deep to shout it out
I write it down and remind myself of who I am

This is why I write.
