When I first discovered One Tree Hill, I spent all my time watching it. Which pretty much means that I’d be glued to the laptop for 10 hours at a day and cry in agony every time Megavideo said those twelve wretched words “Your 72 minutes are up. Please wait till 54 minutes to continue.” After a while I devised a pretty neat system to spend those 54 minutes of anguish. Which mostly just included watching a gazillion Youtube videos. O.o (I WANT TO KEEP THE INVENTOR OF YOUTUBE ON A PEDESTEL AND WORSHIP HIM 80s STYLE.)
A short while ago, I wrote this poem inspired by a quote from One Tree Hill. Its not much, but I was quiet proud of it, when I wrote it and I’ve been wanting to post it here since the very beginning.
You painted your soul
A part of your heart
I saw your work
I looked at your art
There were pictures of you
Alone in the dark
A cry for help, the need to make a mark
Though you might not know it
Your art is saving my world
Your art is what matters,
It’s keeping me here
I see your eyes; they’re filled with fear
Of not being remembered, of not being heard
But it’s making a place,
A place in my heart
Your art is what matters
It’s the only thing for me, I fear
It’s keeping me here
It is what's keeping me here
I've never watched One Tree Hill, but I do quite like your poem all the same. :) And I can definitely relate to the frustrations of Megavideo. Of course it's always always always at the most intense climactic part of the movie or show or whatever, and then--- PLEASE WAIT 54 MINUTES. And I'm just like CURSE YOU MEGAVIDEOOOO. But yes, whoever invented YouTube is my personal hero.
