The Game

This is a poem I wrote a while back for an English assignment, and afterwords I edited it and changed it around. Like anything else, it still needs work, but I thought it was good enough to post onto here :P

All the world's a stage they say
We've our part's to play
It's a game we all must choose
One wrong turn, you lose

There are highs and there are lows
Like our beloved rose
Sometimes it's all petals
Sometimes the thorn settles

Be wary what path you take
Knowing that risk's at stake
So choose wisely what you be
The game brings no guarantee

*critisize it! offer suggestions! BE BRUTAL!*

A Little About Me

Well, right now I'm at a loss for words (hence "Writer's Block". ha ha!), but I guess I'll discuss a little about WHY I've created this blog. There are only two reasons, really.
1. To motivate me to finish what I start. I have god knows how many unfinished poems, short stories, and dramas I have in my notebook. I'd be nice if they could be DONE so that people can actually read them!!
2. Not to sound morbid or anything, but my father passed away a few weeks ago, and I'm trying to find as many distractions as I can. Don't worry, I'm not going to start posting ramblings about whatever psychological issues are going on in my head - that would be giving a little too much info - but I need to do as many things as possible to keep me from being depressed all the time.

On a lighter note, I'll be posting my creative writings soon (hopefully), and I'll greatly appreciate any criticisms or comments you may have. As a writer and a performer, what others think of my work is precious to me; if I'm not entertaining my audience, I'm not doing a good job at what I love most.

...and yeah...that's all I have to say for now :P I'll keep ya "posted".
