PIECES OF ME is a compilation of art, poetry, soul, and service. It is the platform through which I've used poetry and art to heal and express my own soul while inviting others to be uplifted and encouraged as they too endeavor to walk victoriously in their own lives.
Behind the Pieces
During my junior year in college, I prayed that God would not allow anything that I experienced to be in vain. I asked that God would not only help me to overcome every obstacle I faced, but that he'd use me to help others to overcome as well. I use art (dance, writing, painting and drawing) as a means of not only processing life, but also capturing inspiring messages and lessons and sharing them with those around me. Through performances, workshops, showcases, and the distribution of art, I've been able to not only face life head on, but also encourage others along the way.
I am
determined
to transform every awkward part of me
every tear
every fragment of pain
every feeling of misfit
into a masterpiece of a life
one in which
possesses power
and purpose
one that radiates LOVE
in such a way that even those
in distant lands
feel my touch
rays of sunshine
SONshine
healing rays
warming rays
rays of hope
rays of light
dispelling darkness and all of its bondage
