Blood rushing through veins
Coursing so fast
Trying to escape
The source of its past
For the heart is full
Of evil and deceit
Tainted even more
By the devil at her feet
And lips turn bright red
With the taste of regret
And everyone’s surprised
Death hasn’t claimed her yet
But she has a secret
A cure hidden deep within
A sliver of hope
Found where it’s always been

Break the chain
Sever the tie
Rip the cord
Separate the link
Crush the union
Snap the grasp
Free the shackle
Demolish the connection
Disintegrate the bond
Cut the restraint
Fracture the grip
Bust the hold
Tear the binding
Shatter the attachment
Escape the torment

I write to…
Explore hidden realms beyond my reach
I write to…
See the universe in a different light
I write to…
Free myself from the confines of this world
I write to…
Hear my imagination think
I write to…
Escape to other dimensions in time
I write to…
Empower my introverted side
I write to…
Give my soul a much needed rest
I write to…
Pretend that I am someone I’m not
I write to…
Become a happier self
I write to…
Share my innermost thoughts and emotions
I write to…
Give hope to the hopeless
I write to…
Allow myself a few moments of weakness
I write to…
Make people laugh and cry
I write to…
Challenge myself in numerous ways
I write to…
Reach out to the brokenhearted
I write to…
Be daring and free from the chains that imprison me
I write to…
Create stories that I can call my very own
I write to…
Bring creativity into existence
I write to…
Have adventures that would otherwise never take place
I write to…
Acknowledge all that is good and true
I write to…
Perfect my hidden talents and abilities
I write to…
Show myself that I am worth so much more than I think that I am
I write to…
Find comfort in a place that I didn’t even know existed
I write because…
I am a writer.
