A million and one reasons

It began as a diary at a young age, that lead to a journal later on. I write because I have a million reasons to do so. I write because I always question: at what point was it make acceptable to weaken ones society by taking away the voices of their own people? I write because many people now, reguardless of gender, race, or physical ability can not be heard. I write because kids are being taught to put the blame on themselves, as if lifes pressure isn't enough. I write because it is a civil way to show the world of my abilities. I write because I have seen too many people die. I write to revive the spirits of all my friends who have passed on, from suicide or a murder.  I write because if I were to talk to anyone, they would think I am crazy. I write because I have confidence, because many times people relate poets to those who are mentaly unstable, people who have had a tough life, and it many cases it is true. I write to hold my sanity, in a world where morality is unaccepted.
