sometimes i

sometimes i write
to right wrongs
to take me back to earlier times
that i know are long gone

sometimes i write
to wrong rights
take back some of the choices i made
just to simplify life

sometimes i write for life and liberty
and because i fear wasting everything
that life has given me

sometime i write for the pursuit of happiness
because though we never catch it
it's nice to believe in what it promises

sometimes i'm tired and i just write
to jot down glimses of life,
that shape my perspectives like
i'm in a cave and catch shadows off the glimpses of light
