My Poems by: Emily Correa

Hi my name is Emily and I am 14 years old. I have 3 little brothers but beside that I have my mother and grandmother by my side too. When I was 3 the closest person to me died, my grandfather. Then when I was around age 11 my parents got divorced. And finally at age 13 going on 14 my closest aunt died. So you could say i've lost some of the people closest to me. My mom had a passion for poetry when she was younger so I guess I sort of inherited that liking. When I was younger I hated poetry and was forced to write it but now that im older I have to learn to deal with these things in school. Now that im older I realized that poetry is not just about ryhming but about feelings, the way people feel inside can hurt them or lighten there world. ok so enough about me lets just get on to the poems.
