A Reason To Write

I give voice to thoughts hidden from sight expressing my inner self and soul. Paper and pen do not judge what I write though my secrets take their toll. Expressing my inner self and soul I write so I can hear my heart. Though my secrets take their toll an inward journey I did start. I write so I can hear my heart others can listen as they choose. An inward journey I did start myself to decipher I muse. Others can listen as they choose in inspirations shadow I write. Myself to decipher I muse learning to treasure what's brought to light. In inspirations shadow I write unlock my cage of hopes and dreams. Learning to treasure what's brought to light with my fears in full view it seems. Unlock my cage of hopes and dreams. Paper and pen do not judge what I write. With my fears in full view it seems I give voice to thoughts hidden from sight. P.D's 'Anything Goes' Contest 9th place
