What is my life worth?
Is it worth more than I think?
Or is it worth less?
Or is that even,
If I were to add it up,
The proper question?
What is my life worth?
Is it worth more than I think?
Or is it worth less?
Or is that even,
If I were to add it up,
The proper question?
The will to continue on
long after ones original enthusiasm has waned
is the essence of character.
Wrote, of that I wrote
Within a thought once within,
Without is without.
Always it began,
As reliable as though
It ran like clockwork,
My love, did I sit,
Outside, under an awning,
Watched and listened as it rained.
And sometimes, I cried;
All my tears, all my ink, mixed;
And wrote I such things:
I read; and enrich.
I comment, like, and agree.
I follow, devout:
The order in which
I prefer that this should be.
So, within redoubt,
I’m the change in pitch
I wish, in the world, to see–
And to bring about.
Can one know any
by his words so written down,
or her diary?
Do I have any strength
That focusing, that burning, purifying, holy fire;
Watching–patient, reticent–my soul?
I like this better
After thinking about it
for a few hours.
