As truly intimidated and embarrassed as I am to be in the process of creating a "blog," I know that this project is solely for fun. I have been writing low quality, awkward poetry for 4-5 years now and I would like to put it all down somewhere. This poetry often reflects the idealistic and unrealistic expectations of the narrator (me). The words come from a place of raw astonishment and struggle with the realities of our lives-- how love collapses, how friends leave, how disillusionment hits the psyche. This infinite universe with its cosmic twists and turns leaves me with arms raised and short breath. Perception is deceptive and things are rarely worth it on the surface. The challenge of all poets and dreamers is looking inward and finding how to express our wonder. The poems you will read here are not only underdeveloped sentiments of anguish at the stars but also those of a deep love for those stars. If any acquaintance, friend, or family member finds this poetry, please deal with me mercifully...
