[glow=purple,2,300]According to my journal, I wrote this on 9/28/04. hm, after re-reading, I realized that this may not mean so much to some but it means much to me. I believe a few if not more can relate to this in some way or other.
"Paper & Pen"
As I hold this pen and paper
I write what's on my mind,
and as I sit here writing-
I think of good old times.
Remember when we use to think
there was no such this as pain,
We had many cuts and bruises-
but once we knew nothing of heartache.
Never felt so confused or
felt like no one was around,
Once never even thought about-
not having your own hometown.
Never knew what it was like
what it was like to be alone,
Once never had a doubt-
of which place to call home.
But here I am sitting
with this paper and pen,
Everything I never wanted to be-
is everything I already am.[/glow]

Oh, I really like that.
"But here I am sitting
with this paper and pen,
Everything I never wanted to be-
is everything I already am."
That was my favorite part. Great job Sharon.

"But here I am sitting

--Yes, I know this.
I feel the need to say this even though I'm sure you already know: it doesn't matter if it means not a thing, not a one thing, to anyone else but you. Write poetry for yourself - if others enjoy it then that's just an added bonus.
I liked this too:
"We had many cuts and bruises-
but once we knew nothing of heartache."
