Words shape our society, they shape the people we have become and will further mould us into the people we wish to be. We are constantly engulfed in social media, articles, books and language of all kinds. 

​

 

Words can shed light in a dark world. They give a sense of belonging to anyone who takes the time to pay attention. With freestyle verses, my poetry aims to take away the negative connotation that words have in our current society, while providing an enjoyable and relatable experience to all readers.

​

There are many people who live inside of their heads and have trouble escaping from that impenetrable cell; I am one of those people. The intent of my work is to share this experience and help my readers feel less alone.
