Why do I write? Are my motives not pure?
Is it wrong to pen words that perhaps will endure?
Should I try to find words to express what’s inside?
Should I share them with others and not let them hide?
I find pleasure in melodies, rhythm, and rhyme.
I don’t think it’s frivolous, wasting my time.
It helps me to capture and form in my mind
The thoughts that emerge from inside that I find.
I try to relate what’s inside that I feel,
Find words to express what for me I find real.
It’s more of a journal that’s mainly for me,
But I don’t keep it sealed with a lock and a key.
If anyone’s interested, they can come read,
Perhaps if I share, I’ll touch someone in need.
