MY OWN

I wake up

to the knot in my stomach,

more frequent now,

as days are passing

fast.

Always wanting

to be ready,

to have my parents walk in,

smiling because I am sitting

and for once,

it isn't on their living room sofa,

but all mine;

because there's no more

banging heads over

final decisions made

as we have become

who we

will be forever.

ISSUES OF MY IDENTITY (New Release) - The Cover/The Trailer

So, I have published my latest book, ISSUES OF MY IDENTITY, which is now available on Amazon.com. It's a non-fiction narrative piece that goes into issues such as family secrets, love (of course. Who doesn't love, love?), and more. The stories go into great detail about certain situations that are very raw. I only hope to have you relate or to just feel something greater than what you felt prior to reading it.

Photographer, Chanel S. recently worked with me on a short trailer for the book. We wanted to give you an idea of what the book is about from the narrator's point of view. We wanted to take you into her head a bit. I hope you all enjoy this!

 And the cover?......

 

I knew this photo would be useful someday!

LUCKY

As though you’ve come upon something, stumbled
on some fresh secret,
told only to you
through things such as mirrors; looking back
at the smile you never had.
And you know of no
heavy head, only going
and knowing all in the end
is as well as all have once hoped for.
