This is the first poem I had ever written in high school, and in general, and I was actually scared to write it! You guys can guess what it's about, a high school boyfriend... typical, I know. But it's amazing how even the most minor of inconveniences in life can create a flow for writing!

These to poems hit a little closer to home for me, as I had written them after experiencing something traumatic. Poetry has been my escape for years now -- I write from memories, good or bad, from trauma, and from the heart. I can't stress enough how writing can help you open up an entirely different side of yourself that you didn't even know was there!

I wrote this for one of my English Education classes in college! It talks about key events in my life that have sort of led me to where I am now, through literacy! This may be a project I use in my English classes, so it wouldn't hurt to give it a read!
