Analysis of To Write...
To write is to;
share a feeling,
release a thought,
express whats taught...
Feeling alone,
looking into darkness,
flying above,
seeking love...
A lone eagle,
spreading wings,
soaring silently,
wanting to be set free...
Landing on a runway,
exiting the mind,
entering reality,
diving to the bottom of a sea...
No one around,
no outside sound,
staring at the ground,
this is what I found;
