Blossom


I want my life to be a starburst

of energy and love.

I hold my identity close to my chest,

and sometimes it's hard to spread

anything of my everything.

I strive to reach out, pour out

all but the secret of who I am.

And maybe touch a wounded heart

with a finger of pure joy.

Hi! My name is Elizabeth Davenport, and I'm a college student who loves all things language, no matter what language it is! I'm probably reading, writing, or dancing in the rain right now. I'm a featured poet, Aura, on diesandnoctis.com (go check them out: they're great!), and use the names E.D., Elie Dav, and Elizabeth Davenport when posting my own.
