I keep my life in a book
Call it a
Journal
Diary
Notebook
Whatever you want
I call it my lifes work
I write everything down
My thoughts
My dreams
And randomocity it seems
But it truly does hold my dreams
shaking them loose from my guarded mind
Finding their way to people in time
One day it could be on the shelves
Selling itself
But nobody really knows
Not even I
Because it might go unread till the day I die
Its my heart
My soul
My mind
On the pages I buy time
Make it like I never did before
All you ever wanted to know
Is here
Broken binding
Torn and stained pages
In this book
You'll find me

Those are the most interesting books I think. Kerouac called them "Scribbled secret notebooks, and wild typewritten pages for yr own joy." These include lots of good ideas and feelings that needed to be written down. Some I don't mind sharing, others probably not. It's good therapy to keep a journal...really good. It helps to get all those feelings and inner conflicts down. Then later I'll go back and check out what I've written.
