I am no more a poet than anyone.

2. For years I never wrote a single pork about myself. I didn't think my life worthy of pen & paper.

3. I can't remember how it feels to be in love, but I dream of it as the sun dreams of meeting the moon.

4. I've flown back and forth to the same three airports for four years and I haven't met one person twice yet.

5. If I'm awake into the night 7.9 out of 8 times I'm fearful of ending up on a street corner begging for money I know I never earned.

6. I am skilled and will never end up on the street except by my own choosing.

7. If I am awake into the night, 7.9 out of 8 times I'm fearful of my own choosing.

8. For the past three years all I've seen is walls crumbling by the cries of the people I love falling apart around me.

I haven't fallen apart yet.

9. On the first day of the new year I pledged never to lose sight of the ones that I love.
The next day I found myself waving goodbye to the people I care for the most.

10. I did not break my resolution.
