    About this ebook

    Why I write
    I write to let my heart speak. I write to be heard. I write to be seen. I write when Im happy. I write when Im sad. I write when my friends have a problem. I write when I have a good pen. I write to fill up blank paper. I write when there is nothing on TV. I write when my emotions are out of whack. I write when I cant speak. I write when my word dont come out right. I write to understand what went wrong. I write to capture moments that made me smile. I write to live
    Ive written a poem because of a word Ive heard in everyday conversation. Ive written a poem because of the way a song made me feel. Ive written a poem based on something a friend of mine was going through. Ive written a poem about the man that broke my heart, the man that I loved and/or the man that I want to get to know. All of my poems are about someone, something I felt, something I heard, or something I saw.

      How To Stop Pretending And Start Living

      May 8, 2023

      Writing gives me such anxiety. I think it’s a hang-up from all the essays and exams I did throughout school and university. Even as I sit here, I’ve been staring at a blank page for over an hour, waiting for the words to come out. And with each passi

      What Are You Really Crying About?

      — “I love to cry — as long as it’s not about my life.” It was a simple statement, a line I’ve said a thousand times before. But when your dad is a shrink — like mine — you never know where a conversation might take you.  A few months ago I was visiti
