Charmed

You’re low-key crazy,
And I high-key love it.

a friend once told me.

she was playing but,
in between what she was saying,
she wasn’t wrong.

to be crazy means: 1. to be, deranged in an aggressive way.
2. to be, extremely enthusiastic.

my mind is not always mine, some days.

i tend to go back in time and,
rewind only to replay
how much i love(d) someone.
how much love i have inside to even give, someone.

does that make me crazy?

to be crazy in love?

or am i just happy to even have feelings gifted from above?

if i am on the lowest of keys,
and what i possess inside of me brings
the highest octave of joy,
then….
…you should be lucky.

they don’t make em’ like this anymore!

Hey ya'll. I'm PoetKi, and currently I am getting my MA in Creative Writing at Kennesaw State University in GA, where I'm from. Atlanta to be exact! I love to write songs, interludes, poems, short fiction, and creative non-fiction that resonate with both male and female in a way that is relate-able, inspiring, and impactful, while also innocent, sensual, and urban. I am an open book, and I choose to share my story through my words so that anyone who is feeling/have felt the same way I did/do will ultimately connect and understand that they are not alone.

I am an artist looking to brand myself by expanding my connections with other creatives. I aspire to become a hit song maker, a well-known author, and a curator of spoken word events.

I hope you enjoy what you read, and I hope that we can work together in the future, possibly.
