Multiple poems I've written that are basically suicide notes. Or they could be seen as cries for help with my suicidal thoughts and possible depression. I've struggled with this since I was a teenager. I've almost always felt horrible emotionally, but it gradually got worse as I got older. I've wanted to get help, but I just don't really know how to go about it. That's why I've always turned to poetry because that was the only outlet I had, aside from music, to release what I was feeling without worrying about someone not listening, not caring, someone judging, making it seem like it's not a big deal, etc. Depression and having suicidal thoughts is something that a lot of people don't pay much attention to until it happens to someone they care about. It's something that most people make fun of until it happens to a family member or a friend. For people like me, it's not easy to seek help. If you see someone who needs it, don't hesitate to be there for them and get the help they need.

I'm also a Photographer and have a website called Step Back and See. I take photographs and write poems and create poetry books, photo albums and sell individual poems and photos if wanted. I also take photographs for people if they're looking for a photograph of something I don't have and will write a poem for someone if they're not interested in the poems I've already written but still like my work. I also have two magazines I'm in charge of: Step back and See Photography and Step Back and See Poetry. I hope to one day grow my business and make my grandmother proud.
