We Write

We Write

We write because what
The ear can't bear to hear
The paper will kindly accept.

We write because
Ink is loyal to paper
Which is why what you 
Wrote today,you can read forever
Because ink and paper stay together.

We write because
Its not every time that someone
Cares to listen and though actions 
Speak louder than words
A tear drop on paper will make you act.

We write because
Freedom of speech is justice
To our virgin thoughts.

We write because
When all doesn't workout
A smiley face on paper wakes you up.

We write 
Not because we smart
But because writing lasts.

I wrote this
So that you may like it.
I wrote this because 
I wanted you to know why we do this!
