I was born Febuary 23,1994, on the west side of Chicago Ill. At age 4 I started pre-school imediately passionate for school. Growing up my home life wan't so good. My mom worked everyday coming home to stress. She had to cook and listen to my father complain about everything. Even I got tired of it. I have two brothers the oldest 15 as of today and the youngest 9 as of today. Coming home everyday with the same drama made me stress out so when I was like twelve I stared to read whatever I could get my hands on.I also played sports like volleyball, basketball, softball and cheerleading. I alway kept myself busy so I wouldn't be home so much. I didn't realize I was a poet until I was in the eighth grade. After we moved and I had transfered to West Park Academy. I found myself writing in my journal everyday. Sometimes I'll read about my day what I liked and what I didn't like. I realized my vocabulary was extremely high and I used metephors and alliteration and so on in my writing. It was like a different language.
Writing poetry gave me a chance to free my mind of things of all sorts. After a while i picked up art. SO I now writing about my life I draw an image.
Waking up in the morning
I'm shaking and terrified,
scared that the one I,
~love~
...
As the darkness
sucks all the lightness
from the happiness of a day,
My kneecaps ache as they
...
I trusted you as a friend
But you turned your back on me
I believed you when you said
you understand
