Poetry. ?

I started writing, journaling I should say, in 2016.

2016 was a hard year and writing out my thoughts helped lessen the intensity of how I felt.

A few years and several note books later… I decided to look back and peer inside these journals that I poured my heart into.

And I had some poetic things in there! I was pretty surprised.

Then in 2020, I became part of a poetry group with some friends during the pandemic. This helped me a lot. And again 2020 was hard for a billion reasons, but the biggest was my Grandma falling asleep in death. I wrote a poem for her then and I have several musings in my mind that I will have to put to paper another time.

Anyways, in a world full of phoneys and the perfect social media life… I am going to aim to try and “keep it real” with posting some “poems” that maybe some people can relate to and feel understood.

Thanks for being here. <3

Will love and gratitude,

Hillary
