THE REASON FOR MY ART



If I write, it is because I love to
I write to preserve myself, science has not learnt to
I want to keep myself alive even when I can take no a sigh
I may not be a jurist but let me be a specialist in keeping my thoughts
I write to keep my hand alive for it shall die so will my brain
I write not for a cost but for the inner emotion that exhausts my heart if I shall not
If writing is my secret admirer, I agree may be I drunk the philter
I am in love over and over again, I am in love.

What then will the generation ahead say?
That I did not think or I did not please
I now ask God,  let me keep myself
That he should hone my brains daily, pump my emotion more and more
Let me employ brains well
Let me hold what I believed in so in my generation
Grant me the power and strength always
Because I know the fear of you is the fountain of wisdom

Like a painter gets hold of the brush and believes in it
So do I, I hold my pen like am honored, my book like a princess
I store them like a widow hiding her land title
I am optimistic that each time I hold my pen,
I give birth to a new art that the world is yearning to see
I crave for that I call my own
If man has not built castles in the air
I have built greater than castles in space
They stand firm and unshaken like the mountains of Zion
Blood is always red but I can paint it blue, pink, purple or black
I love what I do
