Burdening My Notebook Pages

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 as a diary... 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 ;-)
