I have been writing for a long time, ever since I was a little girl, I was always creating stories, and plays. I even tried to drag some of my old school friends to act in my plays in the school playground, ha ha!! I cringe when I look back but I was just so creative!

Then when I started at my residential college after leaving school, I began to write poetry and even wrote a song (without music may I add!) then over the years, since, I have been writing on and off. It is my lifelong dream to get some of my work published which is what I’m working towards. By sharing some of my work, it also gages what type of feedback I might get. I also write on Wattpad... currently working on a few stories there. The newest one I’m working on is about a student who gets involved with her teacher/tutor.

Anyway, here is the poem that I’m sharing with you here. My poetry is semi autobiographical where you get an insight into my mind and how I feel about life.

For the cries of love

For as long as I can remember

From when I was a little girl

I’ve dreamed of something

Something that comes easy

Yet sadly it’s not easy for me

So many times I’ve observed

Hearts that fill, break and mend

For so long I’ve questioned myself

Wondering why not me, not I

Am I unloveable, unworthy of love?

I see it clearly now I’m older

The problem isn’t because of me

My life is destined for many things

Love comes in many different ways

For now I’ll focus on bettering oneself

Live life with a heart full of gratitude

Whether it happens or not, I’m okay

My life is what and how I make it to be

It is full of love, making me feel loveable.
