My poetry, how it ends/starts

by cowgirlstar26   Nov 6, 2007


( ramblings, its not really a poem or anything, I'm just kinda venting)

sometimes I wonder why I write
why my emotions get typed out
then I look back 20 poems or so ago
and then I'm left in awe, no doubts

There's something wrong when I'm in tears
over something I wrote when I was 14
I cant comprehend my own mind
how I can write still, now I'm 17

months and years go by
my emotional self expression stays
though I look at my genres
dear god, they're all the same

is this the outcome of my life?
to write out such terrible things?
to write of depression and death?
about the turmoil life can bring?

I write of love, and heartbreak
how cliche of me
when there's so much in the world
I look around at everything I see.....

I say this is my outlet
that this poetry is my self healing
but sometimes I wonder
is this what I'm always feeling?

my poetry, my sub conscience
my demon, my self, my heart
my life, my hardship, my everything
is this how it ends? or how it starts?

    I really enjoyed reading this poem as I can totally relate to it. Sometimes I read things I write and think "wow, am I really this depressing?" We all need a way to vent our darkest thoughts and if poetry is the way to do it then go for it! God knows there are far worse ways for people to express their emotions. The flow of this poem was pretty good, and the last line was very effective, drawing me in and making me consider everything you've written. Very clever!!!
