I was born and raised in Hawaii, I am Hawaiian and Puerto Rican. I have 16 siblings around the US.. some I don't know... I love photography and to draw.. I am in college now and am majoring in Photography.... for I believe that there are moments where the pictures are taken and it catches something that is so often forgotten... the sharpness and clarity of the emotion in the moment.

Inner core
*You're made up of layers more than a hundred of them but when you peel a few they thought they already know you impressed, appalled to see you baring your soul, opening yourself and you find it funny and you find it kinda sad because to you it's nothing like a small scratch on a surface nothing but just a few layers off and you have a hundred more to go.*

You're an onion.
That year was so cold As cold as that winter that wouldn't end All I remember about that year Was how little I fit in anywhere How I connected with no one How I sat alone at school While in a room with 40 others I lost count of how many hours I spent Alone in my parents cold garage Sitting in my car that needed a new motor Watching the snow fall from the window And the breath rise from my mouth All the times I sat staring at a handful of pills Too broken to go on, but too scared to sign out Caught in endless torment, with no future in sight Half of me not caring anymore Half wanting so bad to hold on I never imagined I'd survive that year Or the next, then 5, and 10 Or have the life that I have today But I am evidence that all of it's true And giving up too early in life Is like throwing your cards down too soon You just might be holding a king or a queen But it might take you more time to know by Lj Mark

The actions are there though the feeling is not you say it but i don't believe it you look and act a certain way you may be able to fool all the others But not me you want it you chase it or leave me out of it
