My World, My Words

Confessions of a Cluttered Mind

To some, the world is a place where people are friendly and value the company of others. Others seem to live in a racist section of the world that time seems to have forgotten. My opinion of reality lies somewhere in the middle. It is because of this, my mind became cluttered. It became a place where thoughts of love and optimism were constantly battling hatred and pessimism. This particular collection of poetry is an inside look at that battle. It is a journey through my life, experiences, and my viewpoints of the world. It is written as if each poem is a conversation with the reader, which gives everyone a sense of comfort and it allows the words to be genuine. The poems were therapy during my time of need and I hope they are meaningful to all who read them.
