Why Do I Write? Poem by Kavitha Krishnamurthy

Why do I write?
Is it to get feedback?
Is it to improve my skills?
Is it to pass on my message to the world?
Is it to share my creativity with one and all?
Is it to inspire and be inspired?
Is it to speak out my heart?
Is it to become a great poet one day?

Maybe, but the truth is
I want to be alive when I am no more
In the hearts of the people I want to live
I want my verses to magically sing
Through my poems I want to breath
And remain enduring for the million years to come
