The Library

Post by weepingwillow » January 15th, 2011, 10:11 pm

Remember that day, that day
You made me write
It was that day
You brought me light

You have that page
From that day
Belief in me?
Yea, its on that page,
That page

Straight out of my diary
Writing that page,
That day,

Stopped my suicide

Styron survived (a while longer)
because he couldn’t compose
a satisfactory suicide note.

In this particular
instance, we may suppose,
one inspiration would’ve been all he wrote.

I thinking writing, be it poetry, journaling, ambling, scribbling, flash fiction

is the only way to stay sane.........it keeps us in touch with our self.....which can get lost, if we don't keep in touch with it

a diary is more than a hobby, it's a way to survive..........peace ( calm ) !
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading
