I have always loved poetry for as long as I can remember. In Juinor High My Teachers started noticing my talent and encouraged me to save for high-school and on. My Gandmother submitted my poem once and I was invited to a poets convention in Washington DC. I was only 21 yrs old and thought it was a scam so never followed through. If only I knew now what I didn't know then. So today, 25 years later, I'm ready to take chances and explore my possibilities.

This flowed so naturally and I didn't have to re read several times or hurt my brain trying to figure it out. Love it. So cute and brings back so many memories.

I'm not sure what's going on here. It sounds fascinating but I am having a hard time actually grasping the concept. Little insight would be much appreciated. Thank you for sharing.

Sounds like non fiction and very relatable. I'm so glad you got out and are ok. I too went through a couple very abusive relationships. We are survivor's. Keep writing and healing.

Yes definitely feels more like a rap song in the making. I personally would need more context to really get a feel of what it's about.
