For the last time in The Book of Fantastical Confusion, new poem: Dawn. 
          
          I started writing this book so long ago. It wasn't my first poetry book, but it was at a point I felt my style was changing and I needed to start anew. That's how I feel now. I look back at my older poems, and it's nice to see how far I've come, but it was at times that I processed my emotions so differently I find I just can't bring it side to side with my current work. The book also starts off so happy––originally it was supposed to be a whimsical book about the galaxy, and then someway through, you see the sudden crash of depression and all it's about is just full self-hatred and panic. 
          
          I've been doing a lot of self-analyzing lately. I'm at one of those turning points in my life, if that makes sense. I'm able to reflect onto times when I let my mind's insecurities take complete control over my life. I'm so tired of not being happy with myself. I just want to live my life again. 
          
          It doesn't mean I'm not going to be writing any 'sad' poetry or about mental illness anymore, I just feel like this book has reached a point where I can take it no further.
          
          For now, stay tuned. I've already got some projects in the works. 
          
          Most Madly, 
          The Mad Poet :)

          My god, I love this movie. Anthony Hopkins is a treasure.

Ok I've seen Alien, Carrie and American Psycho (all of which I've absolutely loved) - other than that I haven't heard of many of them but will definitely give them a look.   I also kind of get what you mean, I like scary but I don't watch a movie just for the sake of being scary. I like stuff that's more psychological, or at least beautiful to watch (Favourite directors are probably Tarantino and Burton which I feel like are pretty standard. I'm also just a huge 70s, 80s, 90s pop culture gal).

@TheMadPoetGold I don't have a definitive list. I'm kind of a coward. lol The Shinning is great! It sounds like you have excellent taste. You've probably seen all of these.
            
            John Carpenter's The Thing
            Black Christmas (HIGHLY recommended)
            Alien
            Midsommer (I don't know if I can rewatch this.)
            Pumpkinhead ( a fun watch)
            Troll 2 (for the so bad it's good)
            Vampire's Kiss (another funny entry; for the most part)
            Carrie
            Tremors (super fun casual watch)
            American Psycho (if we're counting black comedy)
            Nope (fantastic!)

@novelistASH Nothing to be sorry for. And I'm also a huge movie geek, so it's completely ok. What other horror movies do you like? I'm doing a re-watch of all of my favourites (Silence of the Lambs yesterday), and just watched The Shining again, too. Thinking about doing The Exorcist or The Conjuring next.

@TheMadPoetGold This poem really really worries me. If you need to talk something out, please tell me and I can give you a burner email.  I want to let you know that I am always here if you need some encouragement and love. I know that apologizing probably will not make you feel better, but I am so sorry you have been feeling this way. I wish I had understood sooner how bad it was. If talking to me will make you more anxious, that's okay too. Please just let me know sometime, when you're ready, how you are doing. Much love XOXO
