My Story

My feelings use to be bottled in so I didn't know where to begin. I picked up a pen and let my story begin. Do I write because I'm right or for others delight . Do I write out of fright or do I write because there is enough light. If my beats aren't tight Lord let my words still take flight. I'm not a fighter I'm a writer. That's why I will only fight you on paper where it's much safer. I will always fight for what I believe in. So to all my haters,complainers, intimidators,and all debaters. This will never stop me because God's spirit is within me. May the words I now utter melt hearts like butter. I don't know where this might go, but I'll keep writing and watch it grow.
