My name is Adrian. I grew up in the Sierra Nevada's of California. I'm in my early 30s and still living the solo, single life. I'm a creative individual who expresses himself through writing, photography, and making short videos. Most of my writings have a Love or Life touch, but I consider my work to be a variety of different elements. I have been writing poems and short stories since High School and some through my college years. Since I'm one of the single men with no children at his side, My writing centers around what comes in my mind and the many things any single, loving individual would wish to have. Some of my writings can be light or dark, happy or sad, It depends on what my creative mood is. Many people inside my circle know very little of my writing, but know me for my contributions in photography and creative video ambitions. I chose to separate the writer and the creative photographer, because it would draw too much attention. If you have any questions or want to share writings, feel free.
I've always been creative since I was a little girl. I would write poems, song lyrics, create things, draw, color and sing. My imagination was always big and vivid. As I got older I started to write short stories and even went to college to get a degree in creative writing. Well I ended up becoming a hairstylist which I love doing so much. I decided that writing was a hobby for me, a way to escape and release and I love it. I'm happy that I can be on here to share my talent with the world.
I've been interested in Art since I was in Elementary school. I have continued to take Art classes until I graduated High School. I LOVE everything; painting, coloring, drawing, sculpting, writing in almost all forms-especially poetry, I sing for fun, I cook, dance, hula hoop, design, I went to Cosmetology School and graduated, and last but not least photography. I'd like to say I'm a pretty creative person with tons of inspiration. I hope you enjoy what I have to offer.

Personally my inspiration came from Tupac Shakur! This man was a great lyricist and a poet. He could get his message across with one song full of metaphors and a powerful message! Poetry is stories of all aspects all expressing the deeper connection to humanity, as well as the planet. Thank you Pac for being strong lead in my life 🤞🏽

A summary of my life? Gosh, that's a bit personal, don't you think? I'll just tell you how I got into writing. I was about 11. It started out with writing a poem to my brother's dad after he, once again, betrayed our trust. Won't go into that. I wasn't very good, I mean the poem was good and it meant a lot to me but I always had a lot of trouble with punctuation and spelling and all kinds of things, so I had a lot of mistakes. But after that, I started writing fanfiction for Twilight and Castle, along with bits and pieces of things here and there, I wish I'd kept the stories I wrote, they were really good and I was proud of them but I didn't, otherwise I would send you to take a gander. Anyway, it eventually became very obvious that I couldn't keep a story going for more than a couple of chapters without losing interest and falling miserably into the pit of writer's block. However, poetry was easy for me to follow through wih, didn't have to follow any chronological order, and I could write it in short bursts as the inspiration came to me. Slowly, the short bursts turned into days, and then weeks, and months and eventually I landed here, where my sole thought and purpose revolves around poetry. It's gotten to a point that if I couldn't write, I would probably jump off a bridge. It is literally the reason that I am alive today, it save d my life and got me through some of the hardest times in my life.

My name is Kamu, but names only stay important in the physical world. I am a writer, a poet, a photographer, and an artist. I am a person in this world, that just wants to contribute to all the creative energy in this world. Hoping that my poems will inspire and positively affect people, to let them wander into the deeper side of their life, to pull out the words from their thoughts, and creatively place them into reality. In my journey through life, I am constantly being awakened into someone else's imagination, and I share my thoughts and reflect upon theirs, being inspired to write from ideas that we have all put out together, sharing the images and emotions that come from our complex human minds. To me, questions are the most important thing of all. The art of questioning all and having theories and trying to fill out the unknown seems to be one of my greatest fascinations. I love thinking about things that stay a mystery in this world. It is what inspires me to write. Writing is a way for me to express in a way that is unavailable in any other form of art, or on a greater scale, life. I hope you enjoy what I am trying to express, and I hope to be inspired by your creativity as well. Thank you.
