This is a book full of the poetry that I have written over the years. This started as something required for school but, eventually, I fell in love with it. I have learned that I can express how I feel through the words of poetry. Life has been hard, and writing has been the way to get through it.

In this book you will find both humorous and heartfelt poems. Some are drawn from my real-life experiences, while others are purely for fun.

I never imagined that something that was required for school would turn into something so much more – something that would make me fall in love with writing poetry. It has given me a way to escape real life and tell my story through it, a way to deal with my problems without having to talk to anyone and feel judged. I can be who I want, when I want, and no one can judge me for it.
