I am a very passionate winsome lad,my name is Vusumzi Mathews Sono born in the year of 1989 the 28th of December and I was born here in South Africa at a place called Cape Town,grew up in Eastern Cape.Vusi is a nickname coming from my full name Vusumzi and Oulik is just a nickname given by friends it is a Afrikaans name and it means "cute" .I never knew that one day I would be enthusiastic about poetry,but I loved writting since primary school,but then we used to just write songs that didn't even make sense but because I've never had an easy life as a child so I took out my emotions on writing as I was writing I noticed that everything I wrote was just poetic even at school when we were suppose to do orals,presentations or just anything I ended up flowing poetically,then that is when I found my first love "POETRY" inspired by roman ancient movies and some of Celine Dion's songs e.g the titanic song.
My life has been a pretty crazy adventure. I have been to the bottom both mentally and physically. I had to endure hardships, also feeling the emotions the hardships brought about. I opened my eyes to the harsh cruelty of reality. I was brought up to love and cherish each living thing with a whole and accepting heart. I don't judge, I accept things for what they are. I keep an open mind to everything around me, and I love with my whole soul, body and mind. I'll write the emotions into words while I smile and face the world.
Grew up on a little gem in the Caribbean, a tourist attraction the eyes never misses. There I had my education, primary through college. Life has always been a challenge but with God I keep climbing, and my dreams are slowing becoming. Writer, teacher, website owner of https://www.livingtoreachacme.com/ and more. Always loved poetry. I dreamed of poetry, tried but never thought I was good enough. Today, I am here, I stand only by the Grace of God. He is just so awesome!!!!
Blurb Saleha Begum is a writer and artist living in Birmingham. She was short-listed for the Muslim Writers award in 2011. 'Ruptures and Fragments', her first collection, combines poems with visual art. Drawn from a wide variety of sources and experiences, the poems explore human relationships, sometimes joyous, sometimes brutal, and the psyche, diving deep into the human condition, sorting and arranging, compartmentalising the external and what we are. This collection might leave the reader in a quandary but it will no doubt intrigue and encourage debate. Review "Shouting from the margins of society this is an engaging experimental collection that captures the stoicism of 21st century feminism through a combination of poetry and artistic metaphor. Saleha Begum exposes the ruptures and fragments of relationships and cultural identity through a nomadic style of wordplay that journeys both paradox and the de ja vu of similar experience." Antony Owen, author of 'The dreaded boy' "Saleha's poetry seems to dance and tease the mind, painting poignant images as they go. Lovely." Giovanni "Spoz" Esposito, Birmingham Poet Laureate 2006/7

Wow..... Ummm...... Yeah...... that about covers it. I dunno what to write - says the writer. I write when I'm happy, I write when I'm sad. I have written, most likely, thousands of poems in my life. Some I like, some not soo much, but, they are all organic. There is truly only one poem I have written that I LOVED and I can't find it. It was most likely destroyed by my ex who made every attempt to hurt me when I finally walked away from a hateful, hostile, hurtful relationship. C'est La Vie - chapter closed and epitaph crafted.

I think of myself as a poem. Poems and I are much similar. When i write , I draw out a picture, any picture that comes to mind. After drawing the picture i title it. Then i study the image that I have drawn. This is what brings back memories , or what we like to call it "Flash backs". My poems are a mixture of my & what i have seen. its kinda like i write peoples autobiography for them. Plus i'm sort of good at reading people. Enjoy my poems. I hope at least 1 out of 5 can relate. ~Terena.M~

Been through a lot of things in my life. May be young, but yet old at heart. I have lived life to last me a while, and I am just tired and worn. I go through life and help other people, and than they leave. I am content with who I am and where I am, even when they leave. But at least I know I am still here, and that I did some good.
I am a younger writer, I will say I'm 14. I use poetry as an outlet to express my feelings and hopefully help people who are in rough patches of there life. I take criticism very well, I fact I greatly encourage it! I'm looking forward to improve my skill level with the help of all of you!
i write to live and live to write.writing choose me not the other way around.my work its the reflection of the inner me.i write also to save lifes ans as well as to inspire,transform and most importantly to save one life at time throw poetry. my vision is to help people discover their purpose throw my writings
Everything that I write is about my personal life and things I've been through. I've been writing since I can remember and I won my first poetry contest in second grade and got it published in the school library. The next time, I was in 10th grade and the reason why I entered a contest was to prove that I in fact, did write the poem that was said to be "copywrited" and was offered to be published all over and I declined because I wasn't ready to share with the world, my life! Over the past 18 years I've lost quite a bit of my poetry and stopped writing due to having personal life issues as well as depression of losing my life story in multiple binders. So, less than a year ago I started writing my recent life story, again. So I hope everyone enjoys, the story of my love life over the past several years.
My name is Asianna Frierson.I've always love writing since I was younger.I've developed a passion to write more and more based on experiences and how I truly feel inside. I love poems .I love being creative with it in my own unique way and hope those who will read will enjoy. Overall I will not stop expressing myself through poetry. It's what i enjoy doing in my own time.
I am a girl from Kliptown ..I live in a shark with my single mom ..my surrounding inspires me to write ,ever since I was a kid my reality due to poverty and some experiences pushed me into writing poems ,my writing grew and grew until now ....am still writing about the reality,facts,honesty and factors that people are afraid to face.
Currently a senior at Waukesha North High School. I am a very gifted writer,not only in my opinion, but also in the eyes of my fellow friends and family. I want to write for a living and travel the world. Not just to enhance my writing, but also to fulfill my fate. I am a heartless romantic, too. Not sure if you need that, but yeah that's me! I do have siblings, but none full blooded siblings. I did go through a time of depression and suicidal intentions. Now, I do have Bi polar. It is hard, but I use it to my advantage. I use it to help with my writings. I write poems of things that I desire in life, and it's really great! If you have any comments, please feel free to leave some! I would love to hear what needs to be improved!
