I write to give a voice to the mute, the silent, the unable.
I write to paint the leaves on a long forgotten tree.
I write to remember all that has passed.
I write for those who can’t
I write for people, with people, to people, and at people
I write for a dream, to create and mold that dream
I write to argue with the known and to question the unknown
I write to give value to things that have been cast aside
I write for the joy, and the bliss
I write for the sadness, and the pain
I write the truth
I write the lies
I write for the perpetual and the transient.
I write, I read, I write, I speak, I write
The power my words hold, the beauty my words hold,
They empower and brighten this world.
They are the weapons I hold on my palette.
I wield them to leave an imprint on a white canvas,
A canvas, yet to be infested with my candor,
This world of taint
This world that my words, make drift away
Gone is the stress, strife, and worry
replaced by a fantasy, a story, a luxury
something reality can’t get a grasp on,
something that takes it all away.
My word is art.
My word is life.
My word can.
That is why I write.
Why do you write?

Te lo digo ahora

Y nunca más lo repetiré 

No soy buena persona 

Nunca lo fui ni lo seré 

Así que mantén tu distancia 

O yo te alejaré 

Conmigo sólo viene dolor 

Es lo único que prometeré

No pretendas quererme 

Nunca te creeré 

No me ofrezcas amistad

No la aceptaré 

Confíe en ti {es verdad} 

Pero nunca más lo haré 

No tengas falsas esperanzas

Mi advertencia te daré 

Alejaté de mi 

O yo te alejaré 

Nunca me conocerás 

Ni yo te conoceré
Si ahora te quieres ir
Dolerá, pero entenderé
Algunas cosas se dicen mejor
en Español.

Some things are better said
in Spanish.

I was sent to Heaven when I realized
I am not Jesus
and I cannot walk across the ocean for you
—but I can sure as Hell drown

"the mood that once
was yellow
became a muddy
brown.

the fellow that
once waited
was now nowhere
around."
