Poetry

Journal Entry: Thu Jun 18, 2009, 9:33 PM


Things in my life wouldn't be the way they are for me, if it weren't for Poetry. It has saved my life when there was no around to care for me. It also gave me the freedom to observe and watch every living thing, every character, and gave a fantastic understanding of human life. I love the collective idea of people like how we live urban lifestyles, or live in the Suburbs, small towns, country, from rich to poor. However, what i really Like is meeting people and knowing them one on one. It intrigues me to no end, all people are very unique, and think very differently, even when they think they don't. I often get this very alien feeling when meeting someone new. For instance, this has happened a couple of times, there will be a movie that I find just horrible, and i will meet someone new, and they will tell me how much they love it. So this forces me to find time to watch it with this person to find out what it is that they like about the movie. This might seem a little trite for an example, but the depth is very impressive. Taking a look at the style they see, the direction of the movie, the colors, dialogue, it interest me so that I find myself liking the movie, because now I have this new understanding, that I discovered thru another person's eyes. I have found that all of life is very much the same. From religion, to food, to what ever can be humanly thought of. These details in life is what I seek not only in my poetry but in my life. I have found a great deal of emotion attached to it all. I think the downside for me is that I struggle greatly getting my emotions out in a live setting, like at home or with friends, it all ends up on paper.

From one Poem/Poet to one understanding after another, the great adventure in my life has been among the most poetic, even in my most darkest times, and unfortunately I have had many dark times in my life. I don't know when life will end for me nor do I care, but I am glad that I have had the opportunity to live it, in all its disasters.

Well I write poetry, still don't know if I can call myself a poet yet. I like to paint. I don't really know what to say, I think unconventionally (i think)I have always done things my way for better or for worse. I struggle constantly with my own ideas, but have always stuck by them. I am a big dreamer, and believe that there is magic in this world, and that magic is us, all of us.
