A collection of poetry I have written over the years, a reflection of my inner struggles and my utmost hopes. I share them with you in an attempt to validate my experience but, above all else, it is a way for us both to explore a path forward by naming what we fear and embracing what we wish most for in our present and future. And with all the gratitude I can muster I thank you for reading.

The Battles Within
This book contains raw, unfiltered, and graphic material. These Psalms deal with real life battles. Thoughts of the mind and storytelling. Addiction, suicidal ideations. Mental illness, self-harm, trauma, homelessness. Loneliness, overdose, spiritual warfare, and demonic oppression. And the saving power of Jesus Christ. This is not a book of polite rhymes. Sugarcoated verses or polished lines. It is written for those who are struggling and don't know where to turn. If that's you, know you are not alone. There is hope. There is healing. There is redemption. And salvation.

The Weight We Carry
Every heart holds a story, and every story leaves a weight behind. The Weight We Carry is a living collection - written in real time, in the middle of survival, burnout, healing, and trying again anyway. These poems come from the spaces between responsibilities: grocery aisles, late nights, applications, shifts, side hustles, and the quiet moments when everything finally catches up. This collection explores the ache of memory, the exhaustion of caring too much, the frustration of broken systems, and the complicated reality of choosing to help when it costs you something. There is grief here, and anger, and dark humor. There is healing, but it is not linear. Hope shows up when it can, but it doesn't pretend to fix everything. Through raw, unfiltered verses, The Weight We Carry holds space for the people who keep going without applause - the helpers, the burned out, the ones trying to build something better while still carrying their own survival on their backs. These poems are for anyone who has felt the weight of the world press down and kept moving anyway. Not because it was easy. But because stopping was never really an option.

The Cage
A snippet of poetry from my book. These poems aren't just words, they contain raw pieces of my flesh. They carry stories of my love and the sorrow that came with it. These poems carry the weight that I've been carrying on my breasts for decades. My anxiety, frustration, pain, and the willingness to give up. This playlist will also include themes of violence, trauma, captivity, and deprivation of rights. This playlist is messy. Ranking: #14 in distressed #24 in distrust #53 in poetryComplete
