The Power of Poetry

I had been reading poetry for several years before I came to the decision to actually write some. I was going through a strange time, with lots of emotional highs and lows (I still am to this day). I'd had enough of boring, monotonous diary entries reminding me of how sad my life was. I was some kind of modern-day Bridget Jones, without all the men falling at my feet, and a lot less funnier.
