Newfound Interest.


My Yahama F-310







So after about 7 months of learning how to play an acoustic guitar I am finally upgrading to an electric. I am pretty ecstatic about it. This is an Epiphone LP 100, which is nothing fancy but everybody has got to start simple somewhere. There is a hiatus in my poetry writing as I feel I am a bad poet. The ideas are there but my execution is too crude and unrefined. My inner self is in a state of limbo. Living one day at a time. Learning how to play the guitar grabs me out of my numb state and into a world of melody and feel; a blessing.

Or maybe not, we both were unusually skinny and scrawny. Something we have constantly been made fun of at school; a few more years later down the line when we both approached puberty the bullying is only made worse for being flat ches...

These days I pretty much keep my thoughts to myself,I don't even write them down in my diary anymore.Writing had always been therapeutic, I guess its the same with everyone. Watched an interview of Paulo Coelho yesterday.He is the author of The Alchemist,Veronika Decides to Die,The Zahir and a few more other books. As I'm quite a sucker for metaphors and symbolism like writings, it wouldn't be a surprise he is one of my favorite authors. So there was this one instance during the interview where he mentioned that he wrote for no one but himself. It got me thinking about myself.Of why i had stopped writing when i still had that constant flow of thoughts and ideas in my head.Am i being self-concious? Afraid of what people might think about what I have to say?Or am i afraid that people might just think of me a...
