Melody

Well, I had a boring and event-less childhood. I moved to a different city and school when I was in fifth grade, and that is when my life completely changed. I made new friends, met new people, and had a change of atmosphere that was more hectic and noisy than what l was used to.

Well, I had a boring and event-less childhood. I moved to a different city and school when I was in fifth grade, and that is when my life completely changed. I made new friends, met new people, and had a change of atmosphere that was more hectic and noisy than what l was used to.
In seventh grade I started playing tennis and I joined the student council as vice-president. My grades weren't perfect but they were acceptable, that was also the year that I started dating and doing theatre. It was the year that I started finding it important to stay active and get a good name started for myself. Without that year I would have never started writing. In one season change I ended up writing over one-hundred poems, and then I experienced a year and half long writer's block.
When I came back with no writer's block, I learned that a poem can't solve everything. I realized that with or without poetry I was going to hurt, but a poem was more of a mild sedative; it would work but only for so long. After this epiphany, my writing evolved and became more mature. My thoughts on society developed and I became an actual person instead of a living doll with no intelligence.
I love poetry, and any form of writing; I have no idea where I'd be today without it. I'd probably be a naive child who never understood overly complicated things. I find with these thoughts that I owe poetry my heart and life.
