Poetry: Why I Write
Why I Write
I write to fill empty pages
with feelings I want to be
reminded to forget.
I write to scribble and
burn my thoughts, so they
absorb the page with ink
for those words
to never go away.
I write and hate and
write some more
until that hate turns
into grief.
I write so one day
maybe
just
maybe
I’ll remember
why I hate it so much.
