{A sample from the poem Perfection:
But I never
Look great to me
I strive for perfection
Impossibly
But I never
Want others to see
That I'm not perfection
Beautifully
I stopped trying
To be benign
I want perfection
From my inner inside
I stopped trying
To be fine
I want perfection
It'll never be mine}

A Weight off My Mind - Time to Live
Regardless of size, putting your life on hold until you reach that perfect weight, does no one any good.

Life
A collection of poem's written about events, feelings, thoughts, and emotions. Like a diary to vent out a part of ourselves that no one will ever know about; the poems are simply an attempt to capture the most unusual and abstract aspects of the human mind. From straight forward and relatable to the most bizarre and weird, jumping from one poem to the next with crazy intensity, I hope apart of you feels satisfied or even less alone. Side note: Need a specific poem to feel better? Let me know.

Beneath the Surface: Just Some Poetry
A collection of poems by me
Dear mind, you are weird!!
In times of solitude and despair I tend to drift away into a gloomy state, just thinking about how if, I could pen down these thoughts into words and document them for the purpose of reference and comfort. Dive in and have a field day about how vague but enticing my mind is and how much I can hide from the whole world._You are welcome to compliment.Complete
