Languishing in Boredom

Aaaaaaaaand because I have no life (see below) and nothing to do (also, see below) how about another poorly written poem by yours truly? That's what I thought. Enjoy to your heart's content (meaning you should probably stop now).

Solitude and Silence

Solitude enlightens, silence imparts peace
You may think that this is so
But it isn't quite for me
In solitude I lose myself, there's none for me to find
When silence comes around, it's true, I simply lose my mind

All alone you think of things
But there's no one to tell them to
In silence all the music dies
That makes me dance as I do

For you silence and solitude miracles may perform
But to this wild conception I never could conform
I'd miss the sounds, the Songs of Life
My life would be eternal strife
No one to share my feelings with
Ever lost, kin and kith
So you can keep them if you choose
But in keeping things of emptiness
You

can only lose.

you are going to have some seroius withdrawl issues when you get to college my friend. or you could always become one of those uber-weird people that stalk the rec center pool to get their chlorine fill.
i like your peom though. i heartily agree. i'm scared if there's not enough noise and especially if i'm left alone for more than about 2-3 hours. i go crazy and need to call someone for some form of contact with another person. hmm, this could interfere with my plans to become a hermit.

I was going insane yesterday! I had absolutely nothing to do. I was so stir crazy all night. My homework only took my a total of three minutes, and from then on I didn't have anything to do.

Maybe in college I'll be one of those cool people who comes and messes around with the swim/water polo team all the time.
