Why I Write? Poem by Muhammad Shanazar

Why I Write?

Rating: 5.0


When indelible memories of the past,
Torment my heart and mind; I write.

When mist floats in front of the eyes,
The light comes from behind; I write.

When the men of the callous world,
Compel me to be confined; I write.

When my heart weeps wailing upon
The wise being led by the blind; I write.

When in self schemed distribution I see
The deserving limping behind; I write.

a lovely poem i must say. poetry is a devil's wine. you must have heard this saying. it just comes from inside. a feeling that cannot be held within. it has to let out and let emotions take its shape accordingly

when the positive opulence of fools gives way to petty illusion; I write.
