When they say..
“I just knew”..
I want to tell them: you
are
lying.
Because simply,
I don't know
If we really even know,
What it means
To know.
But maybe I don’t know because the love I’ve been given has never allowed me to know.
And baby..
You may also not know because you know you have not given yourself the same love you seek in others just so you could say..
“I just knew”.
“Knowing” others can be temporary.
But remember,
You
Are
Forever.
So now you know.

Some may argue that the art of writing poetry is full of rules, while others (like myself) believe exactly the opposite.
Poetry is an art form in which we can craft anything we want into a collection of words and sounds in any possible way. There are the rhyming poems we are first introduced to as children, to Haiku, formatted poems in ABABACABABC,etc.
My journey with poetry began when I was in 6th grade, where I had an amazing English teacher who taught us how to write and identify different styles of poetry. Right from there, I was hooked. I still have the portfolio we created and all of the poetry I wrote.
As I got older, I began to write to express myself. And those of us who write, eventually just simply write. Some of my best work are poems where I followed no rules. No editing. No thought. Just whatever came to mind went to the paper, and there I saw art.
Each day we will explore a variety of poetry topics such as the work of famous and up and coming writers, to poetry styles, to prompts, and even my own work. This is something I have spent the last month coordinating and I am extremely excited to share it all with you.
Submissions to have your work shared or featured in the blog are open. Please submit to our Instagram page @poetic_perspectivesblog
