Hello readers :) So as you may have noticed, this is my blog where I post "poetry of life." You should know a few things first, though: 1. I mainly write in free verse. I find that rhyme often constricts my thoughts- instead, I tend to focus on imagery and symbolism and use paragraph structure, rhythm, and color to further reflect my ideas. 2. I wrote most of these poems a while ago- meaning, I don't really like most of them =P But a writer has got to start somewhere! So bear with me :) 3. I'm too scared to put ALL of my poetry up.. some of it is a bit too personal. So this is simply a preview of me. Thanks for reading! LOVE, Julie

Lace and Love

I feel like writing a rather dramatic poem at this point.. thus I've got a mixture of words and a bit of rock and soul music floating around in my head. We'll see what comes out of the jumble..

Confined-
such pretty lace around these iron bars.
All the cracks in the ground
Mirror what once kept me alive.

Touch-
it is not sharp,
but neither is it kind

"Don't forget the china, dear";
but is it true what they cry?
We keep the lights low- yes,
for the truth hurts our eyes.
