A novice in writing, I recently turned to poetry to unleash my emotions that rage and stress my life. Empty feelings are filled when ink meets paper. I feel truly myself and I feel as though I have no limits. Even though my words may sound silly or idiotic to some, I write only so make myself feel better because it's what I love to do.
Write a summary of your life? That's a tough thing to do when there is so much to life. So much to do, to be, to explore. My life is and always has been complicated, but I have discovered that positivity is the way forward...to look ahead and on the brighter side of life...and something my loving partner has taught me ...to be grateful for what I have in my life, even if its just the tiniest thing. I have been writing poetry since my school years and I also write my own songs and music too. I believe being able to express yourself through words, art or music is a necessity to our lives and helps bring out the best in us and all we want to achieve. My poems can be quite dark, and some also sexual in nature, but I relate everything I write to experiences in my life so far and its my way of expressing myself in a positive way. Everyone has their own likes and dislikes, but I hope my poems inspire your thoughts as others have inspired mine. Sarrettaa

My name is Brian Stockton Jr, better known as BJ. I'm 19 years old. I go to Western Carolina University. I'm a football player and I major in elementary education. I have been through a whole lot more than the average 19 year old. I am motivated by being constantly called not good enough. I am a lover not a fighter. I write poems to vent and to release stress that I constantly hold in. Just like everyone else, I just wanna be happy and successful. I am going to be successful!
writing something is expressing yourself, i feel i need to write when i am stressed or happy. i started writing when i was in alimentary school. there was a poem competition and i got a first prize for a poem "my loving mother". At that time i was innocent and never realised what exactly the world is, now i feel what i wrote that time was just expression of myself.
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...
Currently a senior at Waukesha North High School. I am a very gifted writer,not only in my opinion, but also in the eyes of my fellow friends and family. I want to write for a living and travel the world. Not just to enhance my writing, but also to fulfill my fate. I am a heartless romantic, too. Not sure if you need that, but yeah that's me! I do have siblings, but none full blooded siblings. I did go through a time of depression and suicidal intentions. Now, I do have Bi polar. It is hard, but I use it to my advantage. I use it to help with my writings. I write poems of things that I desire in life, and it's really great! If you have any comments, please feel free to leave some! I would love to hear what needs to be improved!
I'm young but I am old, I've lived through a lot of experiences and have done a lot of things I enjoy ready a news paper with a cup of tea by myself, I love to listen to classical music, in my spare time I like to write bout how I feel and what comes to mind. And I would like feedback on what the public thinks of what I have to say...
