Day 5

For today's writing, I did a little "stream of consciousness" exercise. Perhaps, not a true "stream", because I did control some of the words, but the writing flow was steady from start to finish.


Ideas

Ideas are not what I want them to be
for me to write my story of life of love
of exactly what happened and will happen.

Ideas that will explain and describe
exactly what it is that hurts 
that causes joy 
that brings tears to my eyes.

Ideas of what the problem is 
why it's so hard for me to sleep
to wake
to stay consistent to "keep on keeping on".

Where are those ideas
and words
and lines
and feelings?

It all seems so...
...trite.
