Poems for April Part 2

Happy National Poetry Month! Every Sunday I will be sharing the poems I wrote during the week. I hope you can resonate with my words.

Unrequited Love and Such

I found a note in my phone from January 14, 2016. I don't quite remember what situation I was writing about but I still resonate with the words of my 19 year-old self. I hope these words speak to you the way they spoke to me today.

Christmas for the Grieving

Merry Christmas! The Holidays are always a difficult time for those who have experienced the loss of a loved one. This Christmas post is filled with open letters to my late grandfather from myself, my mother and my brother.
