*A work in progress.
I’d been wanting to share a post that I’d written regarding a very specific incident in my life. I wrote it in pen and could not bring myself to share it publicly. I tried again and this poem came out.
Poetry
Wavy
You hit me in waves causing my
emotions to crash
I’m sunken
Going under, far beyond the surface level . . .

Poetry Post: Have You Seen My Smile?
It’s been awhile since I’ve seen my smile
And I’m not too sure if I’ll ever find it
I’ve searched all over
inward, outward
Occupied my time with busyness
all the while I’ve walked around
with various smiles plastered on my face
which all have received wide acceptance from the outside world but
underneath it I’ve been so uncomfortable
willing to compromise ANYTHING to escape
this feeling and find MY smile
I’m at a crossroad
I’m not sure I even want to find it anymore
I’ve tried
alone, to gather others in hopes of finding my smile
Have you seen it? . . . (to be continued…maybe)

Six Word Stories turned Poetry
You lose what you cling to
and my soul aches for you
your clamorous silence paralyzed my heart
though it hasn’t been that long
“I think of you daily, still”
It was nice while it lasted…

My Thoughts on Love
Article I wrote for the Feb. 2014 issue of Teen ArtOut – an online magazine. On page 30-31 you’ll find my article and on page 33 is a poem I wrote.
