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.
Hi, I'm Sara and I'm a 16 year old girl from the Northern United States. I'm in a relationship with an amazing guy, we've been together for five months and I love him with all of my heart. I love to write. I write about love, depression, or anything else I feel. This is my outlet and is leading me toward recovery from self harm, depression, anxiety, and Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). These poems are my life. Thanks!
My name is emma giddings. I am a horrorjunkie, and I love music. I was diagnosed with panic disorder, and it has been an inspiration to a lot of my writing, seeing as it made me quite depressed. I am very dark, and I love that about myself. I also love dark people, with a morbid sense of humor. I used to self mutilate quite a bit. It seemed like an addiction, and sometimes it seems like I'm about to relapse. It is one of my major struggles. Yet, I tell people I am over it. I drink maybe more than I should. I'm still trying to find myself. Writing helps a lot with this. I feel less alone when I write... I feel like someone is listening. Like someone understands. I'm not a sad person per say. Just dark. I don't hate my life...but like everyone, I think it could be better. I've started to hate my body. My idols include: Stephen King, Joan Jett, and Dee Snider. I love classic rock, punk, and thrash metal. I hope people read my poems...and feel something...and if they do, I hope they let me know.
I'm lonely, even when I'm surrounded by people. I always get the impression that I don't fit in. I'm not crazy or anything. I don't cut myself, or torture cats. I just don't know what I'm doing with life at the moment. I haven't had any direction since university, and I thought I'd create a profile here and share some of my writing with you. Thanks for taking the time out to read this.
Poetry and poetic thinking/feeling have been a part of my life since my teens in the 60s. I think it was even before that, but I did not know how to express it. I live a life of self-awareness and have had the fortune to do so for many decades now. I look forward to the discovery, pressing the edge of the known into the glorious adventure of the Unknown. Want to come along for the ride? We can share the driving...
