Biography

I have never shared my poems or stories because I've been too afraid to and I haven't totally believed in myself. I'm at a point where I want to write constantly about everything and anything because there are so many thoughts and feelings that need to be felt and expressed and shared. Words are everything and these are my words and I hope people like them.

Bone Life is bone Life is a hard thing That lives beneath our very skin Life is bone We’re all born with bone, We’re all born with life Life is bone The younger we are, the lighter and smaller the bone is Growing older, the bone becomes heavier, weaker, and Insidiously more brittle with every fleeting day; Life is bone We wait for the snap, the snap of the bone Some sit in fear and wait Some wait for the snap; some wish for the snap Some are so unaware; they have no idea their bone has snapped; This is the cruelest type of snap So cold, so dark, so evil The very thing you love, the very thing you crave; Destroyed. Life is bone Desolate, hopeless, broken Snap. Life is bone. There is no hope once your bone is snapped beyond repair No treatment No medicine No cast will ever heal your snap; For once your snap is there, There is no returning from your icy grave Life is bone

This is good work. Excellent use of hyperbole in my opinion. I enjoy reading it. Thank you for sharing it. Keep it up.
