Kylie Ehlinger Biography

I am a mother of two, two very beautiful girls. They are my truest passion, almost everything I do is for them. I say almost because sometimes I have to find a creative outlet just for myself.
I am currently working on writing a novel, even if I never have it published I still enjoy writing. I have never been one that understands poetry, but I can write a little bit here and there.
My circumstances have been rather dire lately, so taking up writing again has helped ease my mind and given me something other than the dredges of life to think about.
I can't say I am a great writer, or even good at it, but I like that it doesn't have to be perfect. I write what comes from within, even if others don't necessarily like it or understand it. I can't always express myself to those around me, so being able to write out what feels trapped inside helps me to understand myself a little bit better. I have a difficult time sorting through my own emotions, which I believe makes it difficult for me to write a poem. I struggle with depression and anxiety, I have dealt with happenings in my life that have set me on a very dangerous and dark path. My family, being my husband and our two daughters, have been a very profound light in my life. My husband and I have been through some serious ordeals together, like being homeless, our relationship has been rocky and we have even separated for a time. But we are together now, doing our best as we can only do. When I write, the pain and loneliness, suffering and heartache attaches itself to my words whether I like it or not.
I hope with all of my heart that if you read whatever I have written, we may connect with one another, unknown to each other physically, but over the vast waves of energy we may find each other and know we are in this together.
