Often, I am being asked,
“Why do you write?”
Some appreciate, some criticise.
Does, not reading celebrated novels,
makes you uncool and unwise?
Why do I write?
So that I can vent it all out,
what I have in my mind,
for it’s much better to write,
rather than telling it to others,
what you feel, you think,
On a paper, plain white.
My poems, reflects what I feel.
The words I write tells you about
the world I live in, about the world that I see.
Here, while writing, I am independent,
I’m not bound to anyone, I feel I am free,
and most importantly, my poems,
They, unlike humans, won’t judge me.
