This is a poem I wrote for a creative writing class one year. It speaks of ones physical and emotional scars that one experiences throughout life, but tells us that they are not a symbol of weakness, but of strength given to us by God.

Unlocking Passion
Excerpt This story I haven't been able to fit into a category I've ever read before. A story from a normal genuinely happy girl, getting broken to the point she is not recognizable anymore falling in love like everyone else can in this world no matter how broken anyone is to label her. Paired with my character falling in love I dive deep into the sexual experiences that have opened up her passion in ways the world has never been able to. Experiences that you'd only see in a movie. Throughout this story I add questions that I ask myself on a daily basis about life and also questions I feel like we should all ponder along with talking about daily. My mind, like this world, doesn't stop spinning, does not stop thinking, it's random and cruel. I want you to try and understand slightly the way Colleen's mind never stops spinning even in the best story of her life as I portray myself within her. My ending is only known by me, but you'll be able to interpret your own. A sad love story with a hint of passion that I call my own. I remember when he used to do all this to me, the love. Not abuse. *if you're reading this please give me advice on anything!!*Complete

Everything was sweet like strawberries at first, but deep down she was just using me as a rebound to get over a broken heart she has. We met in a speech class one semester, I couldn't talk to her, I shyly had someone else to talk to her. long story short, I should have got to know her like should, because she judged me for what had and didn't have. i loved her so much that I knew that she was cheating on me and wanted her to stay, but God removed her out of my life. she done so much wrong to me, but love her even of all her flaws. This is part one of the collections of me expressing my love to her.Complete

Aphrodite
"There's a blaze of light in every word, it doesn't matter which you heard: the holy or the broken, 'Hallelujah.'"- Leonard Cohen The poems in this series center on two characters: I, the speaker, and You, the speaker's subject. I is not a specific gender or orientation. I is meant to mold to the reader's idea of who they would be. We follow I in not only a love story, one where love blossoms and lingers until its destruction, but a tale of self-discovery, where, after a long and arduous quest for it, I finally finds happiness. Contents: Prologue- Definition 1- Sonnet 2- Astonishment 3- Hello 4- Knowledge 5- Infatuation 6- Notice 7- First 8- Idol 9- Consummation 10- Homecoming 11- Seasons 12- Satisfaction 13- Interlude 14- Change 15- Quest 16- Investigation 17- Faith 18- Wisdom 19- Enough 20- Stop 21- Words 22- Broken 23- Fury 24- Envy 25- Pleading 26- Memory 27- Nothing 28- Regeneration 29- Realization 30- Onward Afterword- Freedom WARNING: Mentions of domestic violence, rape. There's some hefty and kind of kinky sexual content in this, so be cautious if that makes you uncomfortable (9, 11, 12 especially). Infidelity and abuse are pertinent themes, and religious imagery is woven in (mostly pagan, Christian). Please remember your own limits as you read. Thanks!Complete
