I think writing has always been a part of my life. Ever since I was a young boy, I wrote. At the time, I wrote short stories on a yellow legal pad (hence my reclaiming that trait now). I don't know what happened to those stories, nor the ones I so regrettably threw away when I moved, but the desire has always been there. From emails I've written to reports I've done, I always had the urge to write. When I moved down to Georgia, I think I was so consumed with learning a new place, meeting new people, and starting my life over again, that I really put writing on the back burner. Since my move, I've only flirted with non-school related writing only seldom.It wasn?t until I fell in love with, and consequently got my heart broken by, someone, that I turned back to writing. During both my elation and devastation with this person, I wrote in a form that was at the time new for me: poetry. At the time, and to this day, writing poems have at least began with a spark of some kind; whether it be one word, one sentence, or a whole poem.
