I like to write poetry to give myself a way to express my feelings. No matter what I'm going through, I can lose myself between the lines.

The art of poetry! The way you can use words to express a feeling, a moment or even a memory. Nobody needs the whole story, or a 3 minute song to understand the feelings of the words written in between the lines of a poem.
Where do you find inspiration?From all parts of my life. How I'm feeling, to how something makes me feel in the moment. Life events and challenges. When it comes to me, I can just write it down the first time and never change a line. Thats the rawest emotion.
What would you do with $25,000?Some would go into my business,I'm starting called Are You Serious Kreations. I also want to write some children's book based off of my children and all the crazy things that we have experienced. Also get another 3rd row steet suv. Our transmission went out, and it's hard for a house hold of 7 to ride in a 2015 nissan altima...lol
