Why I Write

If I have any time on my hands,

I'll write.

Why?

Well, I'm not sure if words themself could even explain that.

But I suppose I'll try.

I am a writer,

I am a poet,

I am an author,

because

I absolutely love to do it.

I write because it makes me feel happy,

no matter what I'm writing.

I write because it is a whole new way to express myself,

my passion,

my strengths,

my weaknesses.

It doesn't matter if something I write isn't the best,

it matters that people get to listen,

people get to share,

people get to experience,

the joy,

the warmth,

that I feel when I write.

If I want to write about something that is happening around us,

if I want to write about something that is completely impossible,

something surreal,

something fantastic,

I can,

because when you write,

the whole world washes away,

leaving just you,

to create something wonderful.

And the truly amazing thing is,

you can create whatever you want.

Whatever thoughts,

whatever ideas,

pop into your mind,

can become something more,

something marvelous.

And all you have to do is write.

So that's what I do.

And that's what I want to do,
  
That is why I write, everyone.

What about you?
