That is...rather gloomy, but really good. I'm terrible at poetry....

I can't write poetry. I hate rhyming, it's so annoying to have to think of things that rhyme.

Nice...morbid, as usual...*applauds John for trying poetry* A lot of good short fiction writers I know won't even touch poetry. Something about feeling restricted, with the whole rhyme and rhythm thing.

thank you...

I don't feel restricted or something...I've tried poetry. It didn't work out. I slowly backed away from it. My old poetry is still hidden somewhere on this computer. Whenever I look at it, I shudder. That's all.

[emilyrose3292]

Every last line of anything I write poetry-wise makes me shudder. It amazes me that, for supposedly being smart, I can write such atrocities...

You know how you wrote, 'death engulfs us all' or something like that, at the bottom?
Doesn't life engulf us all as well?
Pessimists see the dark side only, those annoyingly overly-positive people see the happy side only. People have to learn that there are two sides, and you can't just ignore one of them...

I do stuff like that when Im bored AND morbid...
But overall, doesnt death always win...
Its a scientific fact that the universe will end...
It will quite literally run out of energy...
I can go into further deatail...
I learned it in ecology in my first year at TIP...
I still have the notebook...
So Rose...
Im not just talking obout how short our lives are...
And how the human race is gonna die out and
And how our lives dont matter anyway...

You'd went to tip before?
I think I should have guessed that, but I didnt...
