I don't have much to say about myself, really. I hope that one day, it all shall all be expressed fully in my art and writing, and that will be the best way of telling others about my life. Probably, I'd just like to say that all the feelings I have tried to put into my poetry have been suffered out, and are very real for me, coming straight from my soul. Writing for me, as well as painting and drawing, is more than anything a necessity, a way of expressing and sharing experiences that I cannot communicate any other way. As well as sharing my feelings with other people, it allows me to understand them better myself, define them and finally integrate them into my being. Several years ago, I had a nervous breakdown from which I had never really recovered. It forced me to start off on a long, painful, twisting journey, on which I have been through things that are probably unknown and hard to understand for most people, so that now, at 19, I often feel very removed from the everyday reality and the people surrounding me. Art and writing help me maintain some kind of contact with them, which for me is essential, and to stay in touch with outer reality while simultaneously exploring and improving my inner world. Each poem I write reflects a step in this internal journey, however small, taken towards re-establishing contact with the world and towards achieving greater maturity and health through experiencing, and finally transcending, suffering. And also, most importantly perhaps, I hope that I shall be able to relate in my writing and art to the feelings of someone else, maybe someone who has been through a similar experience, and to help that person in some way. I often think that if it shall be even one single person, this will still make me happy. Anyway, hope my message made at least some sense... Peace to all.
