If you don't learn to write your own story, someone else will write it for you

8 poems·Since May 2017

i write nonfition, freeform poetry. it can be triggering to some but it displays the harsh realities of life that many people live. i am currently a junior in high school and am hoping to be an American Sign Language interpreter. i enjoy poetry because it opens the gateways to the soul and there is nothing you can do in it that is wrong. for me, every line is a memory and each word is a sword that protects me from my thoughts.
