Welcome!

Hi, this blog is an online record of some of the works I have written. I've started off by sharing some of my poetry and I will also be adding short stories, children books and chapters of novels as I complete them. I have a diverse and general interest in all types of writing and hope to one day see one of my works published.
Please feel free to comment on any of the posts as I am eager for feedback. This is the first time I've ever publicly shared anything I've written and so haven't yet heard any oppinions from others- good or bad. I'd love to hear whether you liked or even hated what you read and what you think are the strengths/weaknesses of any of the pieces. Please do not hold back (although please try not to be needlessly hurtfull! Like I say I'm new to this!)
Above anything else I hope to achieve with this blog, I hope that whoever stumbles across it will enjoy reading one if not all of my works.
Thanks,
Jessica Paul.

The Faithful Friend

Your arms have been my shelter,
You took me in from the rain.
And as the heavens gushed and poured,
you’d help me get dry again.
You’ve listened as my heart was breaking
and held me tight as I sobbed.
You made it all better with your words
when my gentle heart was robbed.
We’ve danced together all cares aside
and shared in laughter readily.
We’ve seen each other at our worst.
Yet, still held our friendship steadily.
We’ve shared affections from and for
the charms of the opposite sex.
But still we’ve not grown apart
even if we were violently vexed.
You’ve seen me win, you’ve seen me loose.
You’ve seen the bad choices that I did choose.
I’ll always have you and you’ll always have me.
More days of our friendship we’ve yet to see.
I hope you know how much I care.
I hope you know I’ll always be there.
‘Till the day our lives do end
I will remain, your faithful friend.
