Photography is my creative side,

A world I liked to see.

But writing is my darker side,

A world locked up in me.

My Mind is limitless,

of outcomes to become.

Expressing myself through words,

purging emotions as they come.

Writing expresses healing,

to that I did not know.

But photography helps me capture,

a world I did not know.

My mind is writing and my heart is photography,

it would seem.

However, both worlds are perfect expressions of me.

Even though the outlook may seem different,

many  I believe can see.

Both are needed in order for me to be me.

So on this journey I continue as I please,

Shedding the old thoughts and ways that use to define me.
