These Are The Reasons Why I Write

I can't speak,

I can only dream.

I can't write,

I can only weave.

Worlds clash together;

People meet their fate.

Kingdom's fall and people rise;

Hero's grow and hero's die.

These are the reasons why I write:

Rhymes and chimes:

Unused words.

Things that people think but can not say.

Histories to make, creatures to create,

Mystical, magical, musical days.

Those are the words I wish to sway.

Fighting a war centuries old,

Living your life by the sword.

These are the reasons why I write:

I can't help but think,

That life is never quite as simple as we believe.

Secrets and mysteries woven through histories:

Families that just don't quite mesh.

It's a release of frustration,

A lease of imagination,

The whirl of creation,

The words for every occasion,

These are the reasons why I write.
