"I act like s**t don't phase me. Inside it drives me crazy! My insecurities could eat me alive!"

But then, I reach for a pad of paper and a pencil and I write about all about it. I make it all go away for just a bit as I lose myself in a world all my own. But, inevitably, I always fall back into reality. Now, though, the only thing that I'm living for is that hour that I can set aside every day to put all of the days frustrations and muses and thoughts and joys (rarely, but they exist!) on paper or on my site in the purest form of expression known to man, allegedly given by the gods themselves: poetry.
