Dear Reader,

---

I guess the idea is

that if I write to you,

it would get everything

off my chest.

Relieve myself

of this weight

and help you to understand

what it's like to be me.

to live in this skin,

experience this life

through my lens.

Hear me out and

what I have to say.

Every life so unique,

Every story deserves to be told.

Listened and connected to.

Until it reaches the

intended audience.

Writing for community.

Writing for unity.

Writing for curiosity.

A writer because that

is who I am meant to be.
