My beauty is shown in the love I project even before I speak, you respect...the silence of my voice, my eyes say so much more, look beyond the beauty I am who you adore…for what I have to offer is quietly stored…away, God holds the key so get on one knee ask for me go ahead pray. Not having a career of my own to be a good mother…”was already written in stone”, hardships, bad credit, and God is what I discovered, pushed aside my dreams to secure a good future for my sons and my daughters…no good fathers, friends, or lovers…no smoking or drinking…wait let me re-think it… My children would have been left on their own it was a struggle everyday just trying to keep the lights on…even though I have a house it’s not my home Through Gods love, grace, and mercy I’m no longer living on the streets warm bed and something good to eat… Because of God’s love I stayed above water, so if you’re not on his team, then don’t even bother…don’t think you will break me I give God the glory I am just getting started… Hey!

Author bio:
I've played the starving artist, the brooding writer, the iconoclastic filmmaker, and the jet-setting greasemonkey. I'm enigmatic. I'm explicit. I'm an entrepreneurial a**hole who runs several punk (d.i.y.) businesses. I master whatever I put my mind to and quickly bore with it. I'm a serious risk taker and have lived on the edge most of my life. I was raised by a gun-toting gangster and notorious drug smuggler (my stepdad). We were on the run from the FBI during my formative years and I was an accomplice in crime at a very young age. I credit my unusual upbringing for my highly perfected street smarts. I also credit it for slightly screwing my brain up, but we don't have time to get into that here.

Born in 1989, I was inspired by the works of Shakespeare and started writing poetry at the age of 10. As a passionate poet, I'm constantly adding new life to my little 'poem pad'. The sources of my inspirations are as diverse as salt and water! Sometimes, a drastic world event or personal ordeal fires up my soul and my pen would start scribbling my thoughts and perspectives on the issue. During less passionate moments of my life, inspiration can come in as ordinary and mundane a form as a piece of paper falling to the ground or the rhythm of my dad's train-like snoring and even how rocks and plants seem to move and grow while meditating.
