Introduction!

Hello Poetry for Feels audience,  and welcome to Poetry for Feels. My name is Alyssa and I will be your wordsmith, adviser, long lost sister, comedian, conscience, and most importantly friend throughout this journey. I absolutely love to write, but the problem is I like to write about it all! I have started four novels (basically just got an introduction written and maybe an outline), two blogs, and yet nothing seems to materialize.

I have work full time and have a part time job on the side, so unfortunately I don't have (and often don't make) the time to write. When I am at my happiest and lowest I find that writing helps me organize my thoughts, record my most intimate thoughts, and is just where I find my bliss. 

Poems have a way of speaking to you and there is always time to write and read them. Plus it allows me to focus on the many topics of interest I have, so that I may follow my writing through to completion! I will be writing freelance poetry on this blog. Hopefully one poem a day, but life happens so I am not going to make any promises to you or myself. 

I am going to capture the start and end time of the poem, because I think time is such a unique concept and I want to see if time relates to various topics I will be writing on. 

I hope you enjoy Poetry for Feels! The word 'Poetry' in the title refers to the fact that I will be writing poetry, and the word 'Feels' has various meanings. As a verb according to Google it can mean: "experience (an emotion or sensation)". As a noun it means, "an act of touching something to examine it." Urban Dictionary's top definition is, "A wave of emotions that sometimes cannot be adequately explained." 

I hope this blog allows you to experience the Verb, Noun, and Urban Feels. I want reading my poems to be an experience, I want to examine my inner self and hopefully allow you to reach in and examine your own self. I want you to feel emotions that you can explain and sometimes can't. 

This is a journey for me and I thank you for taking it along with me! Please provide feedback as we go along. I'd love to know your thoughts and experiences! 

Also, if you have a blog I would love to read it, post a link in the comments.

Have a beautiful day! First Poem on the next post. 

Wishing you happiness, 

Alyssa
