I've notebooks throughout the house. I figure one day, when I leave this garden of sweet misery, everyone will finally understand what weaved in and out of my mind and chest. haha A pleasure reading you, Clive Culverhouse. I'm still rather new here so it may take me some time meshing about the place. :)

Woah, this is a very creativity written piece & with so many thought-provoking ideas, perfectly describing the essence of poets and their whimsical world.. That ending really expresses it all.. Sometimes, it brings certain sort of trouble when feelings are poured onto the paper & thus, results in a dilemma..emotions aren't easy to deal with.. I love the thought of this poem, very profound!
