Author has written 13 stories for Family, Life, Religion, Love, General, Nature, and Friendship. My name is Laura. I am 20 years old and a student at Grand Valley State University. I've been writing poetry ever since I was a kid. When I first started I just liked to get the words to rhyme, and while many of my poems still rhyme poetry has come to mean a whole lot more to me. For me it's like an outlet that helps me deal with some really tough stuff that goes on in my life. While I don't write nearly as often as I should anymore I've posted all my old stuff here and am making an effort to write more these days. Any comments or criticism you may leave will be greatly appreciated. | |||||||
1. Who are you? reviewsThis poem is one of the first things I've wrote in a long time and it comes from a deeply personal place. My dad was 51 yrs old when I was born so I've had to deal with the issues that come from having an aging parent much sooner than most people. For those who know me don't worry I still love my father very much. This is just my attempt to put some of my frustrations in writing.Poetry: Family - Rated: K+ - English - Chapters: 1 - Words: 221 - Reviews: 1 - Published: 11-7-122.
