I've never liked poems, probabally because when some teacher at school forces them on you, they're the most dull and boring things in the world. Poems have always hell for me to interpret. I tend to prefer things in a clear and logical manner, rather than something cryptic like a poem.
However, there comes a time in everyone's life when logic and order cease to exist, and you're left with raw emotions. Emotions that will literally rip you apart unless you have some channel for funneling them away. Even then, that's often not enough.
That said, January 1998 - January 1999 was the worst year of my life, an emotional roller coaster that caused me untold pain and anguish. The first 19 poems are the result. Fortunately, I've mostly recovered since then.
The two poems that do not have links to them have been deemed "too personal" for public consumption. I may actually put them up eventually. The poems are numbered in the order they were written, but are grouped based on the person they were written for.
