Read Me: Within My Poetic Mind

By Debi Locascio

These are poems that tell a story. Sometimes our relationships are not quite going the way we want them to, but don’t know how to express ourselves exactly. Sometimes we love the wrong people, but are so in love it’s difficult to let go. What we want is for them to understand us and how we feel. We want to say something, wake someone up, or simply tell them you love them, but they are hurting you inside. Maybe you can’t find the right words or maybe they just never seem to get it. Well, I understand, and although they may not understand the poems, hopefully it will bring you some comfort to know that you are not alone….I hope they help. Italian girl from Brooklyn, NY. Moved to Florida at age 10. Started writing at 13, but due to a few relationships, took it more seriously as I got older. Thanks to the encouragement of friends in Orange Park and Jacksonville, Fl., I put them in a book.
