Hello there, my name is Jenni and I’m a 22 year old college student in Texas.
I adore poetry and my own work comes from a deep need to express myself in a meaningful, creative, and lasting way. Poetry to me is a way to document my experiences and express my emotions constructively… when I read my poetry back to myself I watch my pain and joy become only a part of my story, not who I am. Make sense? Hope you enjoy my work… we are all artists in surprising ways :)
You will live / In the place behind my eyes
Oh, to crawl between cool sheets and / Sleep the days away
You kissed me then and I could taste / the love on your sweet lips / No place in the world / could ever measure up to this
You astonish me / Tug on my loose ends and you / Unravel me
...there never is an ocean / without that ocean’s sand / I want to be your anchor / I want to be your land
I watched you walk away today
