first entry! and it’s a poem…

I thought i’d start off my diary with a poem i wrote about a week ago today – it saves me having to write too much to start with so here it is

There’s an anguish within me needing to be free’d
And a guilt in my mind I refuse to believe
With a sorrow in my heart and a tear in my eye
Life’s complications are much to simplify

There’s a fight in my head between right and wrong
And a longing to feel I need to belong
There’s a light in my life that I need to find
Excluding the spiritual, meaning in mankind

Understandingness comes from the faith in my heart
Which frequently cowers itself in the dark
My mind follows hereafter, shuts itself down
Not wanting to care, just wanting to drown

What this world has to offer seems bitter and bare
Society creates a confusion so I just don’t care
It’s easier to cope and for my mind to contain
Than to cry waterfalls and have myself to blame

Yet often, anyway, I feel it’s all my fault
I feel helpless and hopeless and life comes to a halt
I confide to my room, into a pillow I weep
And hope it’s all a bad dream I had in my sleep

I seek and a search in this life I endure
It’s like a disease that still has no cure
But when I find the medication that I need to consume
The flower in my emotions will forever bloom

Ha I’m the first to leave a note!!! I wrote a poem but I haven’t put it up yet. Cool! Seeing as I’m the MAster and you’re the apprentice, some tips. 1. Leave notes for other people, read their diaries and comment (sincerely I hope). If you offer some well meant advice or whatever then they usually reply. 2. You can find people with similar interests through profile interests Hint:really similar

It takes a while to build up a network, I started by leaving notes on the diaries that I read and was interested in, now I get a heap of random notes, as well as long term readers so I don’t need to! Um, that’s about all.

Welcome to Open Diary! I know Bill because he and Andrew are friends and I’m in love with Andrew. Hehehe, long complicated story, but Adnrew and I met on the net like 6 years ago. I’ll be coming over to Brisbane in June so I’ll prolly meet you eventually! I’ll be there for two months! I absolutely adore Bill and I’m sure if you are friends with him, that makes you a good guy.

Bill’s right. It takes a little while to get a lot of noters, but once you do, it’s a huge snowball effect and you get tons. I’m always on here so you’ll have at least one dedicated fan [well other than Bill.] You’re a gifted writer. Drop by and say hi sometime, okay?
