Why am I like this?

I wrote this last night (or I guess this morning) and when I tried to post it around 4:00, LiveJournal said no because it was in read-only while some maintenance was being done...Anyway, here it is:

Does writing these type of poems help? From what I read, it makes everything seem hopeless...

Try to write a poem about something you love that isn't another person. I think everyone deep down inside has a love for everything in the universe. Some just have it deeper than others. And that's mainly because in the hustle and bustle of the modern world we live in, its hard to forget all of these burdens and responsibilities(I need money... Nobody loves me... I lost this competition... Etc...), and just realize how perfect and beautiful the world is, and how we are all just insignificant creatures moving in a funny rhythym.

I think the poetry you write would probably be better if you tried to make something like that. If you strived to understand the world better, the flow of the universe and so forth, and didn't dwell too much and what is gone and lost.

Its worth a shot.

but thats just a different type of poem lol, not a deeper or more skilled one...but thats what a lot of poetry is. its reflections of life, the strong emotions that have been ingrained in ourselves by time, whatever those emotions may be...

I agree. I just think there needs to be a balance. Just sad stuff is just as bad as just happy stuff in my opinion.

Bro, it's not that I'm dwelling too much on what is gone and lost, it's just that it's easy for me to write about sad, depressing stuff...I'm actually not sad, as you can see can see right here... :::neon sign pops up and points to the "mood" for this entry as Husani smiles and does some Vanna White "presenting pose" from Wheel of Fortune::: Anyway, sorry about that...got carried away. But yeah, I know I do tend to get depressed about lost love and what not because I have this "uncontrollable" need to be loved and, so far, I haven't...which does suck...a lot...but, you know...that's just the way it is... Anyway, I know how beautiful the world is and how "perfect" it is...although, I wouldn't necessarily call us insignificant creatures. Anyway...I guess I could write something non-depressing, but that would be difficult and I'm lazy...lol...anyway, thanks though
