APPHIA GARCIA Biography
On the very first day of August in the year 1990, a child was born to the parents of Lennox and Daphne Garcia in a small town in Trinidad-Siparia. Apphia Garcia is the second of three children. She started writing poetry only when in distress simply to state how she felt at the time but will destroy them almost immediately, for she thought it the best way to say good bye to to pain being felt inside. However, she was encouraged by friends who were mysteriously informed about her poetry, to continue writing but start saving the pieces. This she did and hopes one day to become as great as the poets she admire like Lawrence.S. Pertiller and Maya Angelo. It is her dream that one day she will progress from delivering her poems in small private gatherings, to becoming a renowned poet.
Life is like one day
It comes around for not very long then fades away.
What can you accomplish?
What can be done in just one day?
...
My heart is as restless as the sea.
Underwater earthquake-tsunami, rupture inside me.
What can I do to stop my heart from beating so rapidly?
...
Much of my heartbeat
Is the imitation of what I felt in your heart
When you hugged me tightly.
...
Lost in a world of my own
Trapped in a body that feels foreign, I have no control.
Emotions are ripping me apart
Battered and bruised inside yet smiles on the outside.
...
Not because I did not text you
It means I did not want too.
Not because I did not call you
It means I have not been thinking about you.
