Every poem is a page
of my own dark journal's rage.
Even entries written bright
foreshadow fall of sun's demise.

A ridicule of self--
it's treason--
a little bit of rhyme--
no reason

Every page is drop of blood.
Tear-stains leaving proof--I loved.

I really liked it

Do I dare to look at whats really there,
Will I be burned?
I cant see past all the pain and torture that goes on in the places we call,
home.

yes yes yes..
I'm in search of the truly Dark tonight, Lady. I've found another one.

I will not bend to the cowardice of a silent judgement.

To the one called "sincere"

for these very lines
once were mine...

I can't believe I haven't replied to this yet!!

Very amazing. I think everyone who lives and breathes poetry, whether they believe themselves to be a poet or not, must have a journal like that. Though admittedly, I wish I could burn some of my earlier entries, it's still a testament to who I am.

Great read.
