I was born in 1997, I've had a weird life, being forced to grow up fast, going through situations that will be described in some of my poems. I'm currently in high school dealing with what life throws at me. No matter what happens to me I try to deal life with a smile on my face, but my poetry is where I let everything flow out.
I'm no professional nor do I aspire to be. I've written since I was 18 years old, mainly about experiences or powerful moments in my life. All of these I wanted to keep with me, but in a way that would really capture what I was feeling at that time as not to see it differently as time and perspective wore away the pain, excitement, love or debauchery that I was going through at that time. Too fearful of a rejection of who I am, I came to realize two things: One, I use metaphor so the reader will have no clue what I'm really speaking about and two, I want to open up and finally see if someone might enjoy my little scribbles. If you like it, great! If not, get the heck out.. just kidding, your thoughts are welcome as well - just be kind, I do this for pleasure.
I have been an introverted writer/artist ever since I was a little girl no more than five years old living in a place where i felt i was not allowed to express myself. My imagination was my heaven, my domain, my escape, my serene place and my laboratory to brew the ideas in my soul. As I got older I started to do talent shows here and there, but I always perceived being critiqued as being judged and made fun of. As a result I did not consistently practice and follow through with striving to do my best work or constantly attempting to polish and refine my craft because I was filled with fear. I am no longer fearful. Feedback? Bring it on. Constructive criticism? I am ready for you. Namaste.
writing something is expressing yourself, i feel i need to write when i am stressed or happy. i started writing when i was in alimentary school. there was a poem competition and i got a first prize for a poem "my loving mother". At that time i was innocent and never realised what exactly the world is, now i feel what i wrote that time was just expression of myself.
“Reading makes a full man.” – Francis Bacon Student with a greed for amassing enormous vocabulary, yet can’t speak them out. I am known for my avarice lust for words and poetry, I read whatever my hands grab. I like Yeats, Frost, Plath, Sexton and Dylan Thomas. Maybe Ted Hughes. Oh boy new words and poems, here I come!

I'm no good at biographies but I'll try my best :) <--- 1st fault, don't start a biography intro like this haha. I live in Australia, Queensland, my house is beautiful and my overseas girlfriend Denise is stunning. I enjoy life but find myself often contradicting, stressing, feeling anxious, sad and all that blah, I do however find a way to convince myself I'm sane haha :P My extraordinarily adorable lamb Denise AKA Bubba Goofe :P keeps me company along with my lil' gingerino cat Smurf, who relieves me from freaking out about the dark :P My family has always been social sometimes it's tiring a frustrating and dysfunctional but we're all lovely social butterfly's, probably the reason I like partying and BBQ, plus I'm a nautical garbage bin. I prefer to be alone because I have adapted to being alone for a majority of my life, I'm an only child, but I dislike being so far away from my princess. Being lonely for so long has allowed me to build character and a strong flow from the chaotic right lobe. I enjoy fine, bold and detailed art, I dislike industrial and overly dramatic art (although I'm dramatic myself I would not like to live with myself haha that would be it irritating :P I also enjoy gaming both board games and electronic, I am an avid player of Minecraft, I hate pop music and enjoy folk, hip hop, alternative, 70's rock, Reggae, psychedelic garage, indie rock, Jack Johnson, Queen, The Beatles, Blink 182, Bright Eyes Chance The Rapper, Kendrick Lamar, Darwin Deez, The Jungle Giants, All Day and lot's of indie rock bands, Tribal seeds, Bob Marley (I'm no hipster) Music is important. I like fantasy books, cartoons, Starwars, The Muppets, Adventure Time (oh but everyone like adventure time, Bing Bang Theory, Destroying Noobs :) I also take an interet in meta physics, philosophy and caring for people. My poems are like me spontaneous, created from a small phrase, idea, song, atmosphere, emotion, so I'm more of an observant poet or a sponge :) But I only want to spark exactly what made me create poems, setting a mental scene or state of mind or cluster of thoughts :)
Born in the Bronx, raised in Vegas family is from Dominican Republic. I move every year within/out of the state that I'm living at that time. I'm currently in Florida, graduated from Lincoln Culinary Institute. I started writing poetry when I was really young as a way to take out my anger out on something due to i was bullied everyday because I didn't know how to defend myself. Soon my poems became more about love than they did about hating and the pain that i withhold inside of me. These days it seems that I don't write poems as much as I want too due to the lack of inspiration, but recently I have found a new inspiration to fuel these hand & hopes that one day, just one day her & I can have something so profound as the thing called love. One thing that i truly desire the most .
