I am city girl from Detroit, MI that's far from perfect but can make perfection out of writing poetry. I was a class clown my graduating class would never believe that I could write poetry, let alone a sentence. I had this exterior wall up and always felt like I could not be myself even around my own family. I was damaged. I started writing poetry at the age of 10 my first poem was called beauty. Poetry was my escape from reality it soothed my spirit and soul. I feel in love with poetry. I always loved music and writing but, poetry just felt right for me. I graduated from high school in 2012, my senior year in high school for a senior project for English we had to write an "I am From" poem. My teacher read my poem and was absolutely shocked and gave me 30/15 points he said my work was truly inspiring. (Thank you Mr. Gidley) The energy from his feedback just brought me great gratitude and ultimately courage to believe in myself even more. I will never give up on poetry.
