I write because
I am me
I am a poet
But I am you
A human
Lost in the tangled webs of life
Saved by the power of Christ
I write because
I am
I write whatever
Comes to mind
Stories about what I have been through
But I also write
About you
Stories about others
Lost in the tangled webs of life
Lost or saved by the power of Christ
I write whatever
I am
Author notes
Kind of just thoughts about why i write and what i write. it's pretty true.

Honest
I like the part "Lost in the tangled webs of life". Writing about yourself and others says it all.

There are several concepts that I like here: that you think about both yourself and also others;
that you write because you exist and have a voice .
