just write: simply go.

Considering my blog's name, I don't think it's a surprise to anyone that I love writing. Books, papers, stories, poems...I love it all. It's my favorite thing to do. 

I haven't shared too much creative writing on my blog for the simple reason that I'm nervous. What if no one likes it? What if it's the one blog post that never gets any comments? What if it gets negative comments? What if? 

But in the spirit of 2015 and all I want this year to be, I'm trying my best to say, "So what?" to all of those questions that pop into my head. 

So here we go. 

I love to write. 
I love to write poems. 
And I'm going to start sharing them on here. 
And I really, really hope you like them. 

chelsea jacobs poem

she had magic behind her eyelids,
freedom running through her veins.
and those who said they knew her,
barely knew her name.
for she could never settle
in one place for all that long,
she'd spend a few nights, call it home,
and in the morning she'd be gone.
for she knew life's great secret,
that we all wish to know.
she knew that if she wanted to see it all,
then she must simply go.

Do you write creatively? What's your favorite thing to write?
