I was Published!!!
So I was published this year, found out about 2 weeks ago. So I thought I would share the poem to everyone, since its going to be in a book anyways. I was published by the American Poets Society, and my Poem is going to be in a book called "A Celebration of Poetry". It's coming out in the summer, I should be receiving a copy in the mail sometime soon. It's one of my better poems I must say. Here it is so let me konw what you think of it!!! :)

True Love
I had locked up all my feelings and thrown away the key, until your heart spoke a thousand words I knew were meant to be.
Your heart your soul, your mind, your eyes, are what drew me close to you.
And as I sat next to you, I wondered if you felt it too.
It's right I know in a way so deep, I can sense it down within,
It's a tingling sensation that I get when I feel your touch grace my skin.
Heartbreak, loss and misery is all I ever knew,
Until someone showed me happiness and that someone was you.
You are the one so dear to me, my angel from above,
I really wish that you could see the reasons for my love.
It's as if you were cut right out of a spell cast upon my heart,
because the crazy thing about it is, I've loved you from the start.
Fate, destiny, or magic may be the reason that we met,
But all I know is days with you I never will forget.
I can't describe in how many ways you've changed the world for me,
It's almost as if you have all along been holding my heart's key.
How special you are and how much I care can be said in only one word.
It's short, it's sweet and it soars around just like the flying bird.
This word is more than I can control, it's happiness to me, It's love and it's ours forever, this I know you can see.
You are living proof that prayers and dreams really do come true.
And I thank God for that special day he blessed my heart with you.
