Our Secret Rendevous

May 20th, 2014 Here I am after a long time away. What can I say? My only excuse is that the demands of life simply got in my way. I must say I feel guilty for neglecting you - leaving you waiting, locked away in our secret place. It seems I come to you more often when I am down. How selfish of me! Yet! you never complain, and continue to allow me to dump all my troubles and woes on you as I attempt to cleanse my soul, leaving you to carry all my burdens. You - who know me better than anyone - you who are always there when I need you. I come to you today just to tell you how much you mean to me, my friend, dear diary. Written: May 20, 2014 - too late to enter the contest Inspired by the contes: Diary

Elaine, my diary has been my best friend since I was 13. I have 3. At times, I forget to write her, and tell her about my days. She is my dear friend. Listens, and lets me cry, and share all my secrets with her. I named her Jewels, one, two and three... LOL.. A deep write, I am sure your friend understands. awesome write...Linda
