I'm Not a Poet, It’s Just My Stuff

This world of poetry is very new to me. In fact, I don’t call what I do poetry, It’s just my stuff. Writing my stuff was absolute therapy for me. My journey began at the end of what was the perfect relationship, or so I thought. I discovered that time and people do change, I was of the impression that things could always be worked out. Nevertheless, I found myself in the grips of my self-imposed loneliness induced by factors beyond my control. Thus, in the beginning I wrote five letters trying to salvage what wasn’t salvageable. Then things just started moving into other directions as I began writing my stuff. I truly allowed God to move in me and take control of my life. This gave me the freedom to create my stuff and promote the power of words through the change that was happening in me. This was pivotal and most important as I began the journey from Desperation to Inspiration. That is to say, little did I know that the process of writing my stuff would be the beginning of my healing experience. I further discovered that all things in life are a process. The players may change or come and go but the continuation of episodes in 3D never ends. This collection of stuff is certainly my process, my hopes, my desperations and, my inspirations. I truly pray that you the reader will enjoy my stuff, and gain knowledge as your process continues, and you become you.
