Writing is all I have

Words that tells so much,

Carries within it all that I am,

As it flows from my mind,

To the screen as I type,

To the paper as I write.

Words that crosses my mind,

Form sentences that reveals all,

A tale that must be shared,

To those that care,

To those that matter.

Words I am powerless to deny,

Its existence the very beat of my heart,

The reason that keeps me pulsing,

To carry on when life gives me lemons,

To preserver despite its bitterness.

Words that must be written,

For writing is all I know,

And it is all I have,

To define all that I am,

To encapsulate all that I could be.
