I’ve found solace in words,

for as long as I can remember.

As a child, I would spend hours staring at my ceiling, waiting to fall asleep, mind racing with all the what-ifs an eight year old could muster. It was in these sleepless nights that I discovered my love of words, turning page after page, reading until my eyes burned and I was forced to close the book.

Most of my adolescence has been spent with my nose buried in a journal, trying to make art out of pain. Poetry became a vessel for self-expression and understanding; what was otherwise difficult to vocalize, translated effortlessly with pen and paper. I’m only eighteen years into my story, and there’s still so much to learn, but I am so thankful for all the love, loss, friendships, and experiences that led me to right now.
