Dear Diary

How does it feel to be broken hearted, To be hurt because you loved? Does it hurt as much as a broken bone, Or worse? The pain stays, but for a short while. Except in cases rare, it goes an extra mile. How does it feel to be a man who has been To a concert with a woman in a red dress? Does it feel short lived Like a drunkard's oblivion? The feeling lasts, but for a short time; A second or two worth more than a dime. How does it feel to love; To love and then break a heart? Is it the same feeling you have when you Disobey the ten commandments? It is much more pleasant a sin, Condemning more than does fornication! How does it feel to be young again, And see with childhood innocence? If granted be druthers, Would you choose to be young again? If it means building castles of glass And riding unicorns in dreamland; yes! How does it feel to know That dreams disappear when you awake? Does it feel like lost time wasted while Searching for a tear drop in the ocean? It feels as real as losing a loved one, But less painful for no one will be gone. How does it feel to find no answer, When it is all you need? Is it as thrilling as a nightmare be, Or much more shuddery? It hurts as much as hating, But at times peace does bring.
