Not yet, but I think I might have met Mrs Right......uhm
Nov 2008
Born July 7 in the year 1985 with the curse of voices. Voices distracting me, but also keeping me company & my only hope of controlling them is writing. I basically write anything, depending on the person I am at that moment in time, Speeches, Essays, Book reprts, "Novels" (atleast still trying), poetry & my first love lyrics for my Hip Hop trax. My mom raised me with a Novel in her one hand & her love for books spilled into my blood & intoxicated my thought patterns. Since then it's been me, my thoughts & my pen.
