The Reason I Write

 Why do I write each day?

To share my thoughts

To bring you back my way?

No, it's not as you think

There are other links 

Than assumptions you make

I know I have what it takes

To be my own roommate

To defy buffeting winds

To soar above thundering clouds

These musings are all my own

Self-directed, self-owned

A litany, perhaps, oft repeated

Teaching me the art

Of dealing with pain

No more, no less

Not to glorify, nor redress

Confessions of the soul

Coming to terms with new and old

Loves, losses, ardours, mundane

Rolled into words, de-stressing strain.
