Why I Write

I write to forget.

To forget

the pain, the hurt, and the sorrow I feel,

To remember the happy times spend with family and friends both far and near.

I write to experience.

Experience everything I've ever felt,

over again.

To understand the things people often say can't.

I write to tell a story.

To tell stories of my past, present, and future.

To guide those after me to be better than those before me.

I write, simply, because it calms me.

It gives me an outlet to anything that I feel.

More specifically, I write just to write.

There's just something it does for me.
