I feel like I am becoming a burden
To my own notebook pages.
Writing these emotional scribes
That only significantly elevates
Into more advanced stages.
And I understand thats their purpose
To let me vent through ink
Between those lines
That were manufactured for that purpose solely.
But I feel that they may be getting overwhelmed
They have to take this in all at once
And look at me...
An emotional wreck
Writing relentlessly
Giving these pages no break
From my consistenly emotonal entries
No longer using them for poetry
But as a diary...
But is that the same thing???
I can't really decipher the difference
Either way I feel I am
Becoming a burden to my own notebook pages...
But I don't see it ceasing anytime soon
Because everyday it only elevates
To more advanced stages...

I really enjoyed this Pinda, I think everybody can relate, I know I can. I particulary liked these lines;
"No longer using them for poetry

But is that the same thing???"
I've decided that I think it is the same thing, anything I feel normally ends up becoming a poem, it's such a good release.
Good work, beeme ;-)

I thought this was great. I really identified with the 'diary' bit as well. Thanks for the read.

Note to self; Pinda the Poet keeps a diary - send someone to grab it and find out where he keeps his magical poetry dust. ;-)
Working at poetry
Brings its own wages
The fabulous gateway
To more advanced stages...

Nice one mate ;-)
Oh no! That phrase 'magical poetry dust' - shit - here goes another one! Aaaaaarghh. ;-)
