When I was little I had this Minnie Mouse book that I would carry around with me and right my stories. Overtime I lost the book, but years later when I'd read through the barely readable writings that represented my childhood imagination, I would become inspired again to write. Not just stories but poetry. I am most passionate about poetry and have been since as long as I can remember. I've "published" on facebook but kept my intimate works to myself. Writing in any form, to me, is expressive and I have 6 diaries spanning several years to attest that. I love to write, but this is the first platform I have found where maybe someone might take note and see my passion betwixt the pages I am willing to share with you. I open my arms to criticism, and I hope it goes without saying that even if it's negative it will be put across in a respectful fashion because it is not easy sharing parts of yourself with others, especially something you covet. I open my arms to expression and compliments and hopeful conversation to widen my stance in this community. 
Thanks guys!
