Welcome to the darkest reaches of my mind.

real & raw is exactly as the title describes: the real and raw parts of me that I have forever been scared to share to the world. This collection of poetry has been curated from years of poems, song lyrics, and thoughts that I felt the need write down. Writing is a form of expression, and sometimes others cannot express how they feel because they don't know how to write it, to understand it, and that is the point of real & raw. I want you to know that you are not alone in your feelings, no matter how dark they may be. That there will always be someone who will understand.

So from me to you: I see you. I hear you. I understand you.
