Dust To Dust
Change And Moving On
If your heart was a diamond, perfect and clear
glittering gleaming like a broken heart's tear
If lust was coal, dusty and black
would it make you realize you want to come back?

Life is a crazy thing, and it has thrown more at me than you may think. But in the end, we’re all just people, we’re all just trying to figure out this crazy thing of life. Through my poetry I hope we can all get through this together and stand strong no matter how hard it seems. So welcome to my poetry, welcome to my world. I hope you enjoy my story.
