Writing as always been my release. It all started when I first met my father. I was 7 and devastated. To him I was nothing but a check he sent out every month. A hurt military brat, I didn't know what to do until my english teacher made us write about our lives. I never stopped ever since then. I don't write for sympathy or to complain though, I write to remain sane. My feelings come out and soon you'll realize im not a typical mopey writer. Im not always sad or in a melancholy state of mind but i'll let you read those poems when they come. But now, I want to show you all the "first" poem I've written that I believe is somewhat well-written. I put first in quotations because its really just the oldest one I can find. Many other poems are just lost somewhere in my room. I wrote this towards the end of a what I thought was a "relationship" at the time with my first real high school crush. Lol it might be a little cliche but it was a pivotal poem during a pivotal point of my writing style. That's why its the "not-so" start of my writing. From here on out I'll pretty much just continue adding my poems and I might explain some and others I might not. I might even just add pictures or simple stories. But meanwhile here it is, my "first" poem, Nothing.
Nothing
You've left me speechless
So many questions
I dont want the answer too
Why did you lie to him
Thought we had something special
At least thats what you told me
But then you went and denied
Everything
As if it never existed
Erased
Gone
