Blog Introduction

This is the only post on here that will not be a poem. I love writing poems. on my garden blog, my main one, I write many poems on there. I decided on the way into the library today that I wanted a separate blog for my poems.my poems are not the best, I doubt they are any good at all. it's not like I'm some secret amazing poetess. however, my poems are one way in which I express my heart. it allows me to try to put into words my heart's voice. my heart has its own voice and its language is not always easy to understand.other times it helps me to unload my emotions. one of my favorite songs is "Breathe(2am)" and one of favorite lyrics in that song is:
 "If  I get it all down on paper, it's no longer inside of me,
Threatening the life it belongs to..."
I never would have thought to put it like that until I heard this song. I totally understand what that lyric is saying. sometimes, writing it, getting it out of me, no matter how bad it sounds or how much it might worry my friends, is the only way that it wont hurt me. if I put it down, in a poem, in a blog post, in a letter to God, then it wont be inside me anymore. if I let it out, then I wont be keeping it inside of me, letting it grow and grow. sometimes when things or emotions go unsaid, they just get stronger and more powerful.  
a lot of my blogs are geared towards a certain type of writing: my garden blog is diary-type writing, my letters to God is praying/conversations with God type writing, my story blog is creative type writing. its time my poetry had its own blog.  I'm very much looking forward to writing in this blog.
