No Point in Reading 8-9

Folder: 
2004

In the beginning this was exciting

I could pour out my feelings on paper

And pretend that made everything better

Now it seems there's notihng to say

But I want that relief from writing

For a while I pretended to write

So that others could be happy

What was I saying back then

No one reads this crap anyway

I've met one person who has commented

Maybe two or three

They've read a poem or two of mine

No one really cared

No one mentioned I deleted my link

So does it really matter to keep writing

I don't think so

Here's the point of writing for myself

I get what I think in writing

I shock myself to all ends

That is the true me there

Knowledge of myself is all here now, though

No more confusion in my head

No more guys to settle upon

I don't have an audience to write for

So who really cares?

No one I guess.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Ya, there really was no point in reading that if you did. There's no point in writing either. I hope y'all are happy.

Oh Charlotte,there is a point to writing,it's called the calling within yourself.It's the call to you from within you to express in any manner for whatever reason and topic of your choice.It's a gift to be treasured by you even if others around you seem the cynic.Do it for yourself.Don't worry of the others,the true believers in writing will be there by your side.We care,I care, and yes there is a point........

I don't know about anyone else, but I read them, like, all of them, and I notcied the link was gone, and I know it seems pointless, thats why I stoped writing as much.
