Poetry : Why write?

 



Why write?



I wonder about the reasons to write

An urge born from innocent curiosity

From a desire to release creative energy

To unravel the mystery of the self


Capturing the music of the wandering mind

The little organ that keeps on buzzing

Drinking in the marvellous sights around it

Reading the crazy creatures that surround it


Putting into words nameless unknown feelings

Putting into words powerful & strong emotions

Like boundless love and scorching wrath

Why write? Why write? Why write?


Write to love, write to hate

Write to smile, write to cry

Write to learn, write to teach

Write for yourself, write for the world
