My reason for writing

by Kashelle - Libra

I write "poetry" b/c i need it
not to make myself seem deep
or to look intelligent
its my therapy
its my way to get everything out
a way to reveal
but to still stay hidden
I dont flaunt it around like some
i dont shove it in others faces
just to prove my worth
or to prove that there is something more
than the superficial surface
No....I write b/c i love it
words are my venting system
though they can be my foe at times
they never let me down
always there,never leaving
just sittin there quietly
and patiently waiting
for my mind and my hand to release them 
in a torrential flow 
of rhythms,sentences and nonsense

Reason for writing:

    people
