Writing allows us to free built up emotions and helps us work things out. Better to act some of those thoughts on paper than in life. Writing is a tool for mental health. Your theme is perfect for this site.

    I write exactly for those reasons - it is a recreational release without having to pay a shrink. Who needs a shrink when there are FanStory reviewers, haha.

I like it! Yes, there is something liberating about self-expression through writing and art. And the use of taking the initiative and the sense of control by "holding the key" is a great metaphor. Good use of rhyme in this brief poem. Best wishes in the contest!

This eight-word poem, Freedom of Self-expression, has the correct word count and allows that we can empty ourselves on paper with the knowledge that we have no fear in our revelations.

We as individuals write for many reasons. More often than not, people explain writing as a way to express our inner thoughts and creative ideas. Through writing, a person is able to expand their mind and spark their imagination.

Thank you for sharing this post. As a fellow writer, I feel that you have hit the nail on the head. Some of us use writing as a coping mechanism, escape, or release. I most certainly do. Good work and good luck in the contest.

    It's usually why I write... escape, release, fun.

This is a good entry for the 8 words writing contest.
It is succinct and philosophical at the same time.
Yes, we all hold the key to our own destiny and to write
about our own experiences will certainly give us freedom -
at least of self expression. Well done and best of luck.

Eight words with impact and meaning. Eight words well written and so important. It amazes me sometimes how much we can say in so few words. Very nice work. Thanks for sharing your poem. Stay well.

    Thank you! Most people yabber on too much. I myself enjoy silence quite often... even 8 words can seem too much sometimes.
