I am a mother of two very beautiful children. I have always used poetry as an escape from all the negative things in my life since I was the age of twelve. I was a very shy little girl who didn't like to express my feelings or talk about them with other people. Instead I was able to express them through my poems. I have won several poetry contests in the past which made me pretty confident that this is what I do best.

What do you do when you're so used to being disappointed that you no longer make plans?
After so many heartbreaks you become afraid to love, or even to hold hands.
I never imagined that faith or love could be destroyed so easily and so fast....

Gaurding My Heart From Love

A single moment of dread, slowly drowns my heart.
The dread of facing a reality but I have no idea where to start.
The reality that our love has turned into a lonely bitter cold.
There is still the future of our relationship that has yet to unfold....
