Why I Write
February 23, 2013
Why do I write?
I don’t write for me.
I write for the souls.
The injured souls
And wounded hearts.
For all the boys and girls
Who have dreams of becoming
Something amazing.
Ballerinas, astronauts.
The list goes on and on.
And I write for their dreams.
No matter what they’d be.
And I write for the boys and girls
Who just need to smile
Like you and me.
Because we all need to smile
Every once in a while.
And even those who struggle
Should dream.
Because I write for them.
