How I got into writing? I opened my eyes and started seeing; liberated my mind and started thinking; recognized my heart and started feeling. My writing reflects the essence of my being in that if I am genuine to my own self, then my writing would also be genuine. Writing helps define who I am as an individual, allowing me to gain a greater understanding of self while enabling my mind to comprehend the reality I am living in. In its true nature, poetry has become the root of my existence - allowing me to firmly stand my ground, while nurturing my mind and making way for intellect and wisdom to blossom. Poetry is about expression that is able to penetrate minds and crafting lines parallel to those of universal understanding.

- It’s about optimism and about recognizing what is/isn’t real and setting things straight rather than idly waiting for someone else to stand up and speak up. I wanted to get across a sense of positivity that I felt that my reality was lacking and, in essence, it is my statement that I am the only individual responsible for my reality and for my life’s/mind’s state.
