I write without knowing whom my words will find without thinking further than the next line When my heart grows too heavy to hold - I write from the depth of my sorrow to dizzying heights. I write without dreams of awards or applause but for the joy of rendering my soul into words. To hold tight each feeling I am blessed to have felt I write not to be known but to know myself.
