Her Campus Kean Creative Corner #1

We here at Her Campus Kean love to write. I mean, we would have to love it to be contributers to Her Campus Kean.

However, as much as we love it, we don’t always want to be writing journalistically. We are also creative writers, too!

With new members added to our team, we’ve discussed our love of writing creative pieces too. That got us thinking. Why don’t we try to show our creative side as well as our professional side?

That is why we’re going to try out this “Creative Corner” to Her Campus Kean. This is where our writers can show off some of their creative pieces.

As of now we only have a few contributions, but we hope to get more.

Enjoy!

THIS IS NOT BROKEN HEARTED

By: Xirena Wormley

I have to find some way to escape-

It has tangled its self around me & constricts around my neck,

Every time I try to leave him behind.

I’ve tried to be strong- the weight of the good times press against my chest.

Lungs heavy, vision blurry-

The bad times are too much, to handle.

The hardest thing to do is to convince myself that he is not love.

I write this because I don’t know what else to do-

When the person you run to is the person you must run away from,

Maybe it’s time to stop running.

This is not a broken heart.

I am not broken hearted.

I AM NOT BROKEN HEARTED.

The pain he causes voids all the love I could ever have for him.

Yet maybe it’s me who caused all the pain

Maybe I’m the one who started this endless battle.

I keep telling myself that I’m innocent

But maybe I’m not.

IM NOT INNOCENT

Either way two people who are masters at the same game-

should find other opponents.

(all this to say nothing- except I’m not broken hearted)
