Double Poetry Board

This blog is where most of my poetry and other writing ideas can be found. This board will also hold the writings and postings of my friend Ali. She writes as well and I feel she needs to get her writing exposed to the world.

Hey what's up? I'm Justin, 21 and a senior at Seton Hall University. Majoring in Public Relations and minoring in Advertising. Hopefully getting into the Ad World when I graduate. I used to write poetry religiously, and now I write every so often. I'm constantly busy with school. I'm a soccer player, snowboarder, and used to be a track runner. This blog is the surplus of ideas that collect in my brain. I find inspiration from experiences, my family, and my friends. They all deserve all the recognition in the world. Where would I be without them?

Love and Poetry


When we think of love we never really can grasp its full nature in our hands. We are always searching harder and deeper into our souls and the souls of others. Hopefully with a few love poems we can make that journey to understanding love a bit shorter.


This is a brand new poem I just wrote. Hope you like it.





Living Dreamscape



Like the first winter’s snow
You’re one of the last perfect things
This world seems to have to offer.


Pins shoved into me
And you help me pull them out,
Bricks strapped to my feet
And you cut me loose.


Nothing set in stone,
Still molding the friendship
Like an incomplete project,
But finding the supplies running thin.


Deepen the reason,
Build on the want,
Skating on thin ice
And we steer each other from the cracks.


Not the obvious love,
But only dreams can tell
Who can produce such a key
And break the shackles I bear.


Hold you while you cry
While I sob on my grief,
And together we withstand
The prolonging sunrise.


-By Justin Beebe






"The true poet is all the time a visionary and whether with friends or not, as much alone as a man on his death bed." ~W.B. Yeats

Justin, I love your romantic poetry so much more than the others. Not that I don't like the others, but these are your best, I think.

This poem really seems to show the danger people put themselves in for love, even knowing the possible consequences. It shows our vulnerability to love as a whole on this planet.

<3 good job
