Why write?

When I have no words to speak
And my thoughts need to flow-
When my emotions are at their peak,
I write to let my worries go.
When my feelings I can’t express-
I write to let my loved ones know,
Insensitive that I may seem
In my heart I love them so…
When life’s path alone I tread
And when my heart has lost its way
When confusion envelops my head…
I write to sweep my pain away.
