Literary: A Super Short Memoir

1/25/2018 09:00:00 PM Media Center 0 Comments

Every day
I write in my journal
I tell stories about how my day went
I indulge in my thoughts
I write sentences that only I could understand
Because it’s not for school, it’s not for others to read
It’s for me.

I am thirsty for knowledge
I want to know more
I want to understand
I want to unveil secrets long hidden by wise men
I want to discover the world
In a way no one ever has

I am selfish,
I am cynical,
I am naïve, I am aware,
I love patterns and chaos at the same time.
I fear oblivion.
Someone has to know,
I want everybody to remember.
I have to leave a legacy
I am not doing this for the human race
I do this for me.
