It’s not everyday you come across love,
At least not in its authentic portrayal.
But if one day you find it,
You’ll find the reality in a fairytale.
I found love the old fashion way,
In a boy who was humble and kind.
It took me quite possibly 79 days,
To realize he was always in mind.
Maybe somehow I knew it before,
When he told me he thought I was pretty.
Or perhaps even earlier on in our friendship,
When I found he was charming and witty.
Either way I found love in him,
The love that weakens the knees.
I told my mom and she sat me down,
And told me about the birds and the bees.
First of all, that’s disgusting,
Second of all, refer to the first.
I just think this boys a keeper,
For loving me even at my worst.

As it says in my tagline: I'm just a writer writing about love because that's what all the cool kids are falling into these days. However, the type of love I write about is based more on the likeliness of modern day heartbreak. I originally started this blog as an outlet for therapy. I believe writing soothes the mind and allows us to express our feelings, which is exactly what I do here -- but in the form of poetry and spoken word pieces. I began writing in 2016 and I like to think the content I put out is relatable and hard-hitting since there's nothing new under the sun. You'll come to find I struggle a lot but without struggles, there is no growth, and believe me, I am growing.
Slowly, I am working towards publishing my own works. Gallimaufry (one of the categories here on my blog) is one of them. I'm also in the process of writing, "war & peace", "where two hearts unify as one", & "i sold my heart to buy yours".
Until then, feel free to linger around and read a few of my pieces; if you like what you see, be sure to hit the follow button at the bottom of my page to keep up with my posts and like & comment as you wish!
Other than that, thank you for reading my About Me page!
I'll be seeing you,
B.K. Laurel
