Writing and Reading

And I set off, on this journey of writing It seems impossible but exciting I am Imagining, who is going to be my victim The one who will read my handwriting Well, problem solved, thanks to typing I cannot wait any longer Nothing can contain this hunger I have to start jotting them down Looking at different subjects at dawn There are a lot of untold stories, but as I start to put pen to paper, they vanish In these parts of the world, reading is mostly to pass examinations They would rather hear you say it than read Only a few have value for reading So who will I write for? For now I will write for the diary For the many reasons it is unattainable are the same reasons it is achievable It must be written for it to be read I had learnt to draw patterns before I could comprehend the meaning Before writing becomes meaningful I must embrace reading.
