I write poetry because 
I have the need to bring me 
To this world 
I write poetry because 
I have to discover 
Who I am 
I write poetry because 
I want to reconstruct 
My body, mind and soul 
I write poetry because 
I’m trying to find 
My way back home 
I write poetry because 
I know that there is something 
Beyond my body that beats 
Subtly to come out 
Yes I write poetry because 
If I did not 
I would never know 
Who I am

kdellefemine

And I think he also writes poetry because the ladies love it.

Edmund, I am curious to know what the people around you call you.  Do they call you Eddie, or anything else?  Or are you Edmund?

Emnabee

So true! Poetry has helped me discover who I am, too.

If we don&#8217;t write, those hidden  flammable words would burn inside of us, and drive us crazy.

You write poetry because you are a true poet, that is evident. I feel you couldn't stop the words from flowing even if you tried. Thank you for sharing your gift.
