My Poetry
I started writing these poems aged 17 onwards. I'd been going through a lot of crap throughout senior school, but then went to college, which I feel turned my life around.
Now that I'm 28, it's interesting to read these poems again, as it reminds me when things were going downhill, but then as I got older, the poems turned into more optimistic ones. These poems were a way for me to vent my sadness, frustration, anger etc to begin with; a memoir if you will, of those miserable days. Then, however, they had an injection of sunshine as my life made a huge turn around.
It's emotional for me to read them again, but also very cathartic. Remember folks, if you are being bullied in any way, shape or form, there is always someone or something you can confide in, no matter how bad things are. I confided in my diary, my family and my dog! I'm sure that someone will always listen, no matter who they are.
