Who Knew Poetry

I'm Amanda. I'm a "struggling actor" based in New York. I like to pretend I am a secret poet. Maybe I am, maybe not. Either way, it's fun.

As visions of failure danced in my head

The notes left my lips and carried me off

Gestures were spilling from my fingers

And confusion from my eyes

What is this animal 

That controls our hearts

In times of importance

In times of love

Fear will shake us

Grab hold.
