Know that you will encounter my Life
What you have known, what you haven’t
What you have felt, or haven’t suspected
What will shock you, send you reeling
What will calm you, or astound you
What will make you nod and say
I have known this all along
What will make you marvel
Or will disappoint you
You’ll find philosophy
You’ll find silliness
You’ll find half-cooked thoughts
You’ll find abandoned efforts
And promising plot-lines
That never quite made it anywhere
You’ll see my dreams
Concealed well or peeping out
You’ll find reminders
You’ll find secrets
You’ll find almost everything.
But there will still be a part of me
That I haven’t written down
That’s mine alone
To die when I’m gone.
They don’t emerge from between the lines
They’re buried deep in my mind.
When you scroll down these pages
And encounter my Life in words…
Make sure you treat it with care
Because you now hold
My living, beating heart in your hands
