Book of life

A Poem by ♪The Girl Next Door♪
"

Kind of like the beginning of a book that I never intend to write. I wrote this when I was feeling down but felt better after writing it down. I'm not really sure where it came from. Enjoy!

"

Why do I feel this way? Can't make it stop, and part of me doesn't want to try. but i find myself trying harder and harder to write down the truth the facts the rock hard evidence. i just keep writing and keep on dreaming until suddenly *BAM* someone is so insecure that they knock me right off my feet and pull me right back down so hard i feel the glass of my dreaming window shatter along with my spirit and faith.

Takes me a while, but eventually i'm writing again, every little thing. for so long i've unknowingly feared to stop typeing, writing,recording in my book of life, but i am suprisingly unafriad. I take a break to stare out my newly repaired dreaming window and see the clouds and clumps of my thoughts rolling gently across the sky. I hear the distant crackle of lighting and the deep booming of thunder. Brainstorm.

I'm thinking so hard I forget where i am. when i wake up from my day dream, I go back to my papers, my recordings. I try hard to go back to the writing because for so long it's all I've known. but everything I see before me- all the notes, everything I worked on and worked for, I suddenly looked down at that book of my life, or the living, and had a revelation: it was all lies. The person I thought myself to be was really a fake. a fraud. I could only come to one conclusion:

I needed to start a new chapter.

A wonderful poem, I got to say that the title and the pic fought my attention right away, glad I saw it. :)

A new chapter/ clean slate is always good once you let go of what is not you. It's a daily release of the old and becoming anew. May want to revise, other than that excellent read and write.

I loved the way you depicted the Brainstorm! That was awesome!
I think in life many often start new chapters, even when the one's that are in the works aren't finished. It's just the way humanity ticks I suppose. Since we are always evolving, growing and becoming something more than we were the previous day, a new clean sheet of paper looks rather appealing at times.

Great Ink!
