A Pen, A Survival
I write so not to
suffocate on my
smoky thoughts
I write so not to
forget that I, too,
have a voice that
won’t be silenced
I write so not to
use the knife
as an outlet
I write so not to
choke on the thorny words
that linger in my throat
I write so not to
be hushed by my—
inner demons
—sweet seductress
I write so not to
burn alone in
my own inferno
I write so not to
die
Why I write poetry.
