Truth, Comedy & Poetry for All (ePub)

I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. I was the straight "A" student who was always into drawing, and working on short vampire stories. I never, in a million years, figured that I would end up writing poetry. I mean, I was never into even reading any poetry besides anything that I was forced to read for my schoolwork along the years. But here I am at 23 years of age, finally self-publishing my first book and trying to get others into expressing themselves as I now do. I love the feeling of letting my words and emotions escape me so freely without worries of perfection. Poetry has opened my eyes to interpreting everything around me as well as to being a little more open about my feelings. It certainly helped me to cope with those long nights of broken hearts and it certainly has helped me share some rather interesting tales. I just still find it hard to believe that this all started from just one romantic misunderstanding.

Truth, Comedy, & Poetry for All is my very first poetry book. To me, it is a photo album where my thoughts and ideas, instead of pictures, were placed as I went through all my first stages--creativity, joy, and heartbreak. It is also an album where I put in images of how much I cared for my mother, and how creative I can get with thieves, vampires and crazy childhood situations. I like to think of this book as my stepping stone towards publicly expressing my feelings with more than just my friends, and also perhaps as a stepping stone to getting others to share their ideas as well.
