There a various times in our lives that we feel the need to write things down, to express them in words. Whether it be an event that occurred that we don’t want to forget, or a conversation that changed our outlook on life, or even just a memory created with someone special that we want to be able to cherish forever. There are times in our lives when it seems as though the only way to handle our troubles and our worries and our sorrows is to journal perhaps, or write song lyrics or poems. It helps to deal with all the hardships that seem almost impossible to overcome. We need a constant, something that will always be there to help us when it seems as though there is no where left to turn. Writing is a comfort; a way in which to express emotions, not verbally, but instead though figurative language and vivid images.
Poetry and journaling have remained consistent in my life for the past few years and have helped me to come to terms with many troubles I have faced and many incidents I have endured. The poetry on this site may either be old or new material and may deal with various times in my life when I felt like I had no other escape than through a pen on paper. So, enjoy and remember comments are always welcome.
