My Dear Diary
My Dear Diary: April 5, 2011
Your pages seem ancient now that I read,
smudged yellow/brown your core does bleed.
Frail pencil and black ink running and weak,
all words of feeling ultimately unique.
Scrawled letters were hefty but rather neat,
heading; my dear diary, with hearts petite.
Quick phrases that tell of everyday woes,
with a flair of imagination in each compose.
Some pages were smeared and sealed with a kiss,
revealing loves to cherish, reminisce.
Some pages had tear drops scattered about,
handwriting was shaky and full of doubt.
No time did you answer, I told you all,
I spilled myself empty as I recall.
You made no judgment either right or wrong,
so my dear diary, you made me strong.
