The word "nostalgia" shouldn't be capitalized or have the letter "e".

I wish I could write stuff like this too.

I wish everyone could just write out what they feel instead of acting on irrational emotions...I think the world would be a much safer and peaceful place if that were so

nobora 08-30-2010 12:38 AM

It would be. I do act on irrational emotions all the time.

One could argue that Love is an irrational emotion.......

/cliche off.....

writing poetry is very cathartic and good therapy.

so many poems about love and rejection.

Its so much easier never to love-- because of the pain

vithvicious 08-30-2010 12:20 PM

Well in that case I would venture to say that we shouldn't live either.

Eventually we all die and dying can be painful.

Cathartic indeed! My works written in angst, whatever the source, are always better than those written about passing thoughts. The lighter ones are worthy, but have far less impact on both myself and others.

As for it being easier never to love and avoid pain - it doesn't work.
It only subtitutes pain of emptiness and deprivation for the pain of loss.
To emulate my favorite poet, Dorothy Parker "you might as well live." In this case, love.
