Chapbook
To the man who finds my long lost diary
the blackened thing that reads just like a life
of one young man who’s sharper than a knife
I hope you don’t look too far into me
If you should be a lover and a friend
then please return that long lost book to me
consider this responsibility
a loss that only you can now amend
If you should have a soul that’s dark like mine
please take care when throwing it away
that book is full of one young man’s dismay
what little joy I had could now be thine
