I Write Because...

I write because,
In writing ,I can be Me,My thoughts and emotions  will be set free.
I write because,
In writing, My Heart engraves its mark and My Soul carves its print,
My Spirit and Music  mold ,flowing from within.
I write because,
I am a Poet,and till the day I die, a Poet I shall be, My ink shall not dry,
My Words shall not fade,and you will remember Me.
 

Charma
