Well it's a bit personal, you see, I met this incredible woman. I was immediately drawn to her. She’s beautiful, witty, intellectual, and spiritual and has the kindest, most honest heart. I began to develop very strong feelings for her and circumstances were such, that I could not share them. It was overwhelming, frightening, and incredible all at the same time.1
She is an amazing writer and I saw how she used her emotions in her writing. She inspired me not only to write, but also to take a look at myself as a person. The first poem I wrote was about how addicted to her I was and I felt a huge release. All these feelings bottled up inside, but I had to contain them. Writing has given me a way to express myself, without actually saying the things I need to say.2
She is truly my inspiration to write. I will be forever thankful our paths have crossed.3
