About Me

One of the greatest sources of joy for me is writing poetry. It releases my soul and allows me to express beauty, sadness and what to me is the essence of living; being connected to others. I have seen many things in my life that have had an effect on me, both profound and minor. I want to share some of these experiences with you. I will be posting poems and stories of what inspired them.
