why i write

You ask why I write these things
I write ‘Cause I don't wanna scream.
These words are my frustrations,
My fear, and isolation,
It’s my anger and my pain,
My sorrow, and shame made known
My familiar words
The words are my constant struggle,
The overwhelming need to be heard,
The petrifying fears that no on is there to hear, or care.
I write because I can’t say the words.
I write because I have to.
I write because if I don’t, I die.
So I write.
