I'm an 18 year old girl in Rural America. I write to stay sane. Sometimes my poetry blows people away, sometimes it's just me venting. I've been writing since I was really young. Literature has been a safe haven for me.I have daddy issues. I have never smoked. I hate parties. I love reading. Words are my one escape from reality.I bear my soul on here, this is the one place I can be completely honest. This is my safe haven. I leave for college this fall. I have no idea which college.... but I leave for college in the fall. Ask me anything. add my fb https://www.facebook.com/margaret.howson my twitter @marghowson
I set forth my soul on this page, not for you to judge or devour as you devour every other being, sucking their very existence into the black hole that is your person, but so that you can meet me at a crossroads. I ask only that you respect my words, my opinions, my thoughts, as I respect yours. In disagreement we can come to terms and see that the other may not meet us eye to eye, but they are nonetheless people who exist and breather just as we do. So here I set forth my soul. My words are a trap, a confused conundrum which drowns out all reason and reality. I am but a fish in a sea of my own making. I am drowning in words.
