Well, it's the start of a new book, the start of a new life for me now. I thought it would be apt to begin with something rather morbid because in many ways, that's a part of me now. Let's see what this book shall bring. :) 

I'm long-winded.

That means I talk a lot

About the same things over and over

And over the same faults

That I cannot erase. I always

Go back to the same problems,

The same rotten memories

That are already pleading me to turn

Them into waste, into scraps of unwanted

Paper that nobody spares a second glance,

A third look, a fourth thought

And a fifth conversation. The dance

Is ending, my life is still moving

But yet I am still going on about

The same hurts, the same scars,

And it needs to stop, it needs to stop getting out.
