Writing is fun!

    

All I want is to get my thoughts out there and share with anyone who might be interested in reading it. I write poems that are kind of dark and gruesome as well as poems that are more on a positive note. I was born and raised in Sweden and that is also where I live at the moment.

A lot of my poems are written out of personal experience, but then again a lot of them are inspired from things I've read, talked to a friend about or seen on TV. And since I like to use words as tools to create an image for the reader to immerse in I, do add a dramatic flair to it in order to make sure that emotions are awaken.

Some poems I also write to show that even though life sometimes seem bad things will always get better. I think all of us have gone through periods in life that wasn't all that great and we have questioned our existence, that is perfectly normal in times of crisis. My point is that there is a way out of it no matter how difficult and severe things may seem at the time. I am living proof of that, because to be honest, my life hasn't been easy at all. I mooved on though and today I am blessed with a wonderful life.

I have no major achievements as a poet since my goal with writing is not fame or fortune, I write poems much  the same way as  I paint, I create for the joy of creating and I'm as proud of my work as I would be of a newborn baby. That also means that I'm very reluctant of letting go of my creations, it took me years to get this far. And who knows, maybe one day I will actually take the step towards getting published as well.
