Resolutions

Time to step out
Time to shine
To take the world
And make it mine

No more darkness
No more fears
No more wasting
These finite years

Tell the stories
Spin the tales
Spread the poems
Forget the sales

Write for passion
Write for art
Release my words
And give them heart

I’m a writer
Through and through
And it’s high time
I knew that, too

Let me step out
Let me shine
I’ll take these words
And make them mine

Erynn Crittenden

Erynn Crittenden has written poetry since she could hold a pen. This love prompted her to earn a BA in Creative Writing, where she learned how to experiment with syllables and styles. Since then, Erynn has self-published three poetry collections (By the Bones, Transfiguration, and Into the Western Sky) through Amazon. She also writes and publishes plenty of individual poems on her website, and her work has appeared in the Talon Literary Magazine, the Beautiful Poetry anthology by Silent Sparks Press, the #AmWriting anthology by the Wayne Foundation, and Life Blood: A Collection of Vampire Tales by Gary Hill. Erynn is also the creator and host of the Present Poetry Podcast, where she reads and celebrates a different poet every week.

    Hmmm. An intriguing story, indeed. Secrets, secrets, and mystifying circumstances.
