The Literary Workings of Sabrina Samuels

I am a Writer before I am anything else. My first passion, first love, and first obsession has and always will be writing. I will regularly post my work, new and old, on this blog to share with readers. I have a way with words, so beware of the laughs, tears, and even anger you may experience at times. My literature will come in the form of poetry, short stories, and even open letters. I use my everyday experiences as inspiration. I regularly gain inspiration from my friends, peers, and even those I cannot bare to be around. I hope you enjoy!


Broken
(One of my most popular poems)

Maybe you never said anything to hurt me, it's what you didn't say that made me cry. Should I smile because you're my friend, or cry because that's all you'll ever be? For a few moments you made me feel as though I finally meant something to someone. When you look into my eyes and watch my heart break, does it break yours too, even just a little? Maybe if I wasn't so good at pretending to be happy I might learn to actually be happy. Meeting you was fate, becoming your friend was choice, falling in love with you was beyond my control. I could fill a thousand pages telling you how I felt and still you would not understand. So now I leave without a sound, except my heart shattering as it hits the ground.
