June 16: Blue Notebook

It doesn't feel like that long ago
When time was spent writing
Words that captured emotions
From one with so much inside

Every artist and every song
Touching upon multiplying aspects
Connecting every turn and twist of youth
Into a force unrelenting

Those songs ring out
Like a bell signaling war
The toll of those times may never tell
The excitement behind creating


There is a blue spiral notebook (the same one that I am using to write down this months posts) that has some of my original "punk" songs that I wrote from over 10 years ago. Though those songs may sound silly or inane now, they are still a reflection of someone that I was. Those songs matter, even if you wouldn't find performing them anytime soon.
