At a very young age, I started to use poetry as an outlet. As I became older, I realized that poetry was more than my outlet. It healed that broken part of me that I was never able to let anyone see. Every part of me I hate. Every part that was hurt or tortured by someone else's hand. I was diagnosed with bpd as a young adult, was told I would never have an easy life. Could never hold on to a relationship. Hold me tightly references all of the hardships I have had. in different ways from freelance to sonnet. I hope that my wounds can help yours heal and show you that, though or pain may differ we all still carry around are own weights.

I grew up in a small town, as poor as they come. I never was able to finish high school, my parents withdrew my siblings and me. I have struggled with mental health most all of my life. Which also lead me on a path to addiction. The words I write down have held so much weight to me. Other than the terrible troubles I have had in life, I will always see the good in people. Cherish the small things as a rose blooming and hold on to love I have received from people who mean the world to me.
