About Me
About me
I have always loved music and art. Art of any kind. I use poetry as a release! I could paint a beautiful picture, but that isn't what's happening, and I can only show the things I feel inside. I also love 70's rock the lyrics are timely and inspirational for me. I also play guitar to soothe the savage beast in me!
