I write poems and give them to my family.

17:24
I tend to write my emotions. Sometimes it's easier to write the things I want to say.

I sometimes write things I want to say too.

VERY TRUE!

OH YEAH, take it from a girl who's been there, rejection happens, IT'S SOO HARD, but it makes us better writers!

A LOT of rejection!
