I got into writing poetry at a point in my life where I was really down and depressed as a teenager. As I started to release my creative expression, the more things started to flow for me. I realized I knew nothing about me or the world around me. I just knew I was tired of being a robot, a sheep, part of the cattle. There was just more to life than what is projected into our minds on a daily basis, I thought. There is all of that in this world if we choose to believe, learn about our minds, learn of our surroundings, live without fear & doubt, and just embrace every trait love attributes. I hope, my writings both older, present and in between give off a glimpse of the reflection of my growth, soul, and spirit. Peace
