So needless to say, my vacation was nothing short of amazing. All the sights, time with family, the history, the culture and gathering perspective on the world that exists outside of what I’ve known my whole life is something I’ve been internally processing the last week I’ve been home. I honestly don’t even know where and how to start manuscripting the experience I’ve had – but have been documenting emotions I’ve been going through with this newfound perspective through what I call poetic confessions. Confining thoughts in art, portraying emotions through words and phrases directly from the heart and then realizing that the process in itself is one of true self discovery. I hope you enjoy and I promise that I’ve been slowing but surely going through my 3000+ pictures and will share with you soon.
Poetic Confessions
To grow is to yearn
To listen and learn
To believe in improvement
To continue a movement
Always pondering for greater
Always challenging the fates
Always opening up the soul
Always filling up the holes
I have come this long way
To know that living each day
Means to risk it all for the chance
At a beautiful life enhanced
Rational thoughts in this life
With irrational actions I will survive
As long as I continue to question
And fulfill through poetic confession

WOWW…
That touched the heart
And made me smile
Very sincere
Just as you were in the post
Working on my rhymes
I have never expressed my travels through a poem but I think I will next time.
Can’t wait to see the photos, great seeing you at Twestival
