What I Write is My Heart

I write because of my heart. I write because the world wont listen to my heart.

white blank sheet of papers became my solace
for everything I couldn't face
the pen became my sword
when everything feels so cold


what I write are the other me
who I deeply wish I could be
a princess who fell in love with a knight
a damsel in distress who learned to fight
and a maiden that made that bad boy's world come into light


what I write are the adventures inside my mind
that are nothing but one of a kind
travelling in search of Hades in Greece
and look for the golden fleece
marrying the king of thieves
and dancing with the fairies along the maple leaves


what I write are the different worlds I've gone
that I would love to live and to have fun
a world full of deities and magic
a dying world filled with tragic
and a world so beautiful I would like to mimic


what I write are the words I long to say
but will never make its way
the I love you's I secretly whisper
I could only write it in a paper


what I write are my feelings kept hidden
because the world wont listen
so I decided to make it into a letter
and there it shall remain forever

[Weeping willow]

Beautiful reason to write one's heart into expression where all the words flow so lovely together ;-]

[Ardra]

It's always good to express ..than letting it suffocate us....I have realised writing helps me in different ways...to keep me calm and yes....the words become a pathway for us to find our much deserved peace.... I love what you write ...:) keep writing

[Sapientiam]

You say you write because the world won't listen to your heart, but your heart speaks clearly to us. Writing opens up another side to us, a side we often conceal from others. I write because verbal words often evade me and it keeps my internal balance in check. We find who we are through writing. It's amazing how we can grow from this and express ourselves in ways that are hardly possible for the silent ones.

I loved this. Great job!
