I have been writing poetry since 2011 and I love doing it because I can express myself. I was bored one day and pick up a pen and paper and started putting words together on paper and now I am passionate about it. I write songs and short stories also but I am more better at writing poetry. I love music very much and I love fashion.

I don't write to please Only to put this need at ease I can't force my poems, spontanious as fire They flow in when they desire Like emotions, they never seem to dim It's my job to scramble; keeping up with them So they are not a loss of time To view my work I won't charge one dime All my hardships are not my demise This life I live is such a prize

My mind is dark, But my heart beats with a beaming Red,

A summary? How is thou to write a summary, when a summary is a description of something worthful? I have had few worthful experiences since i turned 12. Now my life is very different. I am emo, emotional, a cutter, and a very hurt, and depressed about to be teen. I might even be bipolar. I cannot tell you of a life oh so FULL of happiness, because if I said that's how my life is or was, I would be lying. I cannot tell of a time, since I turned 12, that I have not thought of killing myself neither. I see things, That's the main cause of my negative feelings. They caused almost all of this pain and hurt. But they made me realize how really cruel the world is, and how it's oh so full of pain, tears, and sadness, and even fear. I am the way I am, and all of it together in the past year, has made me suicidal. i am the way I am, and I do NOT want to live a different life, but this one DOES need help. I am just too afraid to get help. I have told people of my problems. Some have told me to get help. WELL HOW ABOUT YOU OUT YOUR HEART WHERE YOUR MIND THINKS IT'S PLACE IS RIGHTFUL!!! I know I need help, but I need you to help. Any and everyone. Please pray for me, and PLEASE don't tell me to get help. I dont want you to TELL me to get help, I want you to BE help.

Wow..... Ummm...... Yeah...... that about covers it. I dunno what to write - says the writer. I write when I'm happy, I write when I'm sad. I have written, most likely, thousands of poems in my life. Some I like, some not soo much, but, they are all organic. There is truly only one poem I have written that I LOVED and I can't find it. It was most likely destroyed by my ex who made every attempt to hurt me when I finally walked away from a hateful, hostile, hurtful relationship. C'est La Vie - chapter closed and epitaph crafted.

Maybe I Became A Mother Too Soon, Maybe I Made A lot Of The Wrong Decisions Too Soon, Maybe I Have Loved Too Quickly Without Confirming Their Love For Me In Return. Too Sum It All Up I Can No Longer Focus On The Maybes' Or The Opinions Of Others. I Have Been In The Valley For So Long, I Am On A Journey For Peace And The Life That I Will Enjoy And Not Just Endure ...

Hello, my name is Liana Medina and as you may have already read i am a beginner poet. I never thought i was able to write poetry, until one day i wrote Darkness's Grasp, which is one of the poems you will read soon. I have recently been keeping a book of all my poems and currently have about 34 poems that i have written this year! Now i will warn you that some of my poetry is quite grotesc, and some have come from dreams and nightmares i have had. So that being said I would love some input and some advice on how to grow as a poet. so please feel free to let me know what you think, and i will be more than happy to the same for you.

A book full of love From the man above Here I stand Praying out to the streets To get off their feet Not here to teach Just show a better way If we come together Will see better days

This page contains some of my finest cringe-worthy work. Run...run while you still can. You have been warned. When I'm happy/sad/inspired/bored THIS is what happens.

Poetry allows me to say all of the things that are in my heart and mind that I cannot express verbally. I feel most at home when I am in my notebook just writing what I feel. It is the most free I will ever be. We live in a world of constant rejection and criticism, so it's nice to be able to contribute something beautiful to world that is in desperate need of it.

Hi my name is Laura Ashley I am a young writer of only 16 years old. Poetry has always been a huge inspiration to me since I was only 5 when I discovered how to write poems. My poems are based on realistic things that have happened in my life although I do write some poems based on other things. I am hoping one day to be a famous poet although deep down I know I will not be. Thank you for taking your time to read my poems if you have.

A misunderstood writer and poet who has been through a lot and found comfort in the silence of literature.

I'm just a face in a sea of faces. To me....A poem is like the photograph of a feeling. Like a container for emotion. It holds it. So you don't have to.

I enjoy the simple things in life and constantly laugh to keep from crying I jus wanna share my life through my words hopefully it touches someone else.

I am 21, I grew Idaho with a mom and dad and brothers. I had always wanted to write poetry and never gotten the courage to try but then the time came when I needed to discover who I was. Poetry gave me a way to escape the struggles of life.

I was born, Nov 22,1961 in SanDiego,ca. I am the baby of five, i had 3 older Sisters,One BIG BROTHER.. 3yrs Sep, my oldest sister passed suddenly. My Mother raised us kids on her own. We went to church every Sunday, HAPPY PLAYFUL LOVING CLEAN FUNNY KIDS WE WERE... Until a man married my mother I was 8-10, when the darkness began. My mother her smile went away our lives changed that day..We survived and moved away ..Never to far kept a watchful eye on my Mothers every day.... 18graduated High School met my Husband I didnt even know that yet... I was a virgin when I met him, soon our Family begun.. I had three babies, MY PRIDE AND JOY. ONLY TO SEE how through his selfishness threw our Love Our Family Away between some girls legs... I took my children and everything else ... Left hin with a forlk,a spoon and a knife a plate a towel wash rag And a Recliner to sleep in... and 3broken ribs, .. Never looked back, Was married 3yrs and 3 weeks. Thats when my kids and myself began our life on Owr Own... My first poem was written from that in 1985 Titled : " MY OWN " by; jo ellen buck white

"My life is well lived. like a pair of worn out jeans, I'm torn and tattered but I faded into a nice shade of gray." I suffer from a rare movement disorder, I was born disabled. I don't let that get in my way I started writing when I was very young. My IQ is above 200, though I don't believe the test results I'll be honest there. I live with my cat Sassy Nanny Pooh Shelton (Boo! for short). I lost my mom from cancer on 5th of December 2014, I miss her greatly but writing is one way that I can show my grievance for my loss. I also love to paint and draw, I've been told I'm really good. All I can say is that I try to do my best with what I got.

I overthink, understate and disregard why I'm this way. I feel too much and regret it all. I'm a pretty pessimist, Just awaiting the fall.

I am 28 years old I was adopted when I was 5 years old have great parents 2 brothers and a loving sister and tow beautiful nephew's I am studying to be an EMT so I can save peoples lives and make a deferens in my life and others,

I am a published author with a book entitled: Through The Eyes Of A Poet Melodies. Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. And now living in Waukegan! I am 37 years-old with simply a love and passion for reading and writing poetry in my spare time. To purchase my book please go to www.authorhouse.com and type the title of my book into the search engine. Enjoy! :-)

Everything that I write is about my personal life and things I've been through. I've been writing since I can remember and I won my first poetry contest in second grade and got it published in the school library. The next time, I was in 10th grade and the reason why I entered a contest was to prove that I in fact, did write the poem that was said to be "copywrited" and was offered to be published all over and I declined because I wasn't ready to share with the world, my life! Over the past 18 years I've lost quite a bit of my poetry and stopped writing due to having personal life issues as well as depression of losing my life story in multiple binders. So, less than a year ago I started writing my recent life story, again. So I hope everyone enjoys, the story of my love life over the past several years.
