Hi, I’m Briana Blair, Author of The Dark Side of My Mind

I started writing poetry at the age of 16 for an English assignment. An assignment I was less than thrilled about. As it turns out, writing those first two poems opened up the floodgates, and allowed me to express all the emotions and thoughts that I was unable to express to those around me. It was written therapy. I came to enjoy writing, and over the years, my work has expressed a myriad of thoughts, emotions and dreams.
I hope that within these pages you will find something that speaks to you, and helps you feel like you are not alone in the world. I have written about love, hate, pain, fear, loss, dreams, wishes, and all the things that I had inside myself, and that you may have inside of you.
It is also my hope that reading these poems will not only give you a sense of belonging, but perhaps inspire you to write poetry of your own. It can be a wonderful release in times when you feel overburdened and alone. It is a wonderful art, and should be both created and enjoyed bar far more people.
Wishing you darkest dreams,
Briana Blair

It’s been a long time coming, but I’m finally getting my poetry back out into the world. If you have the Kindle reading device, you can now get The Dark Side of my Mind: The Complete collection for it.
I am really excited to have my work out in the public eye again. I know there’s not a huge audience for poetry, but there are people out there that are into it, and I’m really hoping that they will buy and enjoy my work, and tell others about it.
If you have Kindle, go here and download a copy for yourself today!
