indeed, this was very well constructed...it was hard for me to find the flow at first, but it was there. The technical aspects of this piece were overshadowed by the emotion...I had a strange feeling that this wasn't genuine though. There was not actual pain or heartache behind it, simply because once you started ranting in the 3rd entry, it seemed to just say all the things everyone says...
there didn't seem to be anything personal included, I guess is what I'm getting at.
I liked how in every entry you started out reassuring yourself through the journal, and then it seemed to talk to her instead.
I liked the emphasis on the "I need to get some sleep" because that's what I say whenever anything starts to feel weird, LoL.
The fact that the news report was in rhyme was rather original, most people who include a news report at the end usually just write it out. I usually do.
I find that suicide at the end of pieces is usually wack, but this was pulled off well.
good work dude.
