Dear Diary,
I haven’t been able to share this with anyone else,
so please let me explain what I went though
because I can’t explain it to anyone else.
Dear Diary,
This has been the most phenomenal day of my life,
and I don’t think I can explain to anyone else
how this day has felt like perfection to me.
Dear Diary,
I’ve really been trying to make sense of the world
after finding out they died. I knew they’ve been
battling cancer, but their death kills me too.
Dear Diary,
I swear, when my boss opened my mail yesterday
and took something of mine, and he laughed
to me about it, that’s when I had to quit.
Dear Diary,
When I suggested we all go out, the one guy I like
suggested a formal theme. Everyone backed
out, so he set our date for Sweetest Day!
Dead Diary,
This job, day in and day out, is so mind-numbingly
boring that I have to have some time like this
to myself, to try to keep an ounce of sanity.
Dear Diary,
Sometimes I need you, my sounding board, so I
can recollect all I need to remember, just
so I can piece all of my life together.
Dear Diary,
There is too much clutter in the world, and too
much clutter in my mind. You’re a diary, but
I need you more than you could know.
