Wanting the Queen of Brookline
The music playing
through the mirror
my mind a drift
Thinking about the
Queen of Brookline
the one I want
Her laugh always
warming to the soul
smile melting the heart
to a pure liquid
Wanting to love
something with her
that will last forever
Thinking about growing old
sitting in our rocking chairs
still having each other

About Me
About me
I am a graduate student studying to be a special education teacher and write poetry as a hobby. I work as a substitute teacher and love what I do. I love to write about people and topics that interest me. I also love to read. Some of my favorite authors are Stephen King, authors of the Beat Generation, Ray Bradbury and many more. I am very eclectic in what I read. The Beat Generation really inspires me to write the way I do. I also believe that music is not only music, but poetry that has instrumental added to it. I have so many ideas flowing around in my head and I just have to get them out onto paper.
Location: Boston, Massachusetts, USA
