This is a poem that I penned to try to explain to people who do not know me, why I do what I do. Why I bother to take the time to write something that most people have no interest in reading. This is why I write.

"I write"
I write when I am lonely,
To fill the void at night.
I write so I will not be scared,
When I turn off the light.
I write so I can hide the pain,
Of knowing my babies will leave.
I write so that I can pretend,
That even I believe.
I write because I have nothing else,
That only I can do.
I write so I won't cry at night,
When I'm missing you.
I write so my kids will know,
That I had something to say.
I write so they might know me,
If God calls me away.
I write so I can find the peace,
That lies so deep within.
I write because sometimes it feels,
Like my only friend.
I write because I have a gift
To spell my feelings out.
I write because sometimes it seems,
Like all I do is shout.
I write because it is who I am,
Because it's the way I'm made.
I write because words can survive,
When memories and feelings fade.
I write because God wants me to;
It's the gift he's given me
I write so I won't have to leave this world,
For my soul to know it's free.
