Amber Lee• Show poetry

I'm a 23 year old female from New Zealand. Ive been writing poetry since I was five.I had a very different up bringing to most people. I write about how I'm feeling, or something that interests me. I am inspired by music and art.Some of my poetry comes across as weird because I hallucinate some times due to psychotic depression.Found out not long ago that I have bipolar and psychotic depression.I don't like showing it to family members because most of them think its too dark.Without writing poetry Id go insane.It also helps me analyze situations I'm trying to deal with and my problems.My main areas in poetry are Dark,Horror,Erotica,Weird and Personal work.I work part time in a shoe shop(don't like it)I am a part time writer and am currently working on a novel.My dream would be to have my novel published and made into an epic movie!

My fav bands are: Tool,evanescence,Radiohead,Kasabian,Oasis,Nirvana,La cuna coil,Sketchie,Ego likeness,In Tenebris and Bjork.And miles more!!

My fav movies are:
The Lord Of The Rings, The Matrix, Labyrinth,Fight Club,Angles and Demons,Speak,Requiem for a dream,The butterfly effect,Prozac nation and Rabbit proof fence.

I think the songs Going under,Bring me to life and Lithium by Evanescence relate very well to me.

I am a goth at heart,I really got into it when I was sixteen,I wear more colour now.
I'm a very loving person and feel peoples pain,I have studied to become a caregiver for the elderly.But I really want to look after special needs kids or help with mentally ill people.I am also looking at becoming a make up artist and am looking at making a website for make up and clothes.
Poetry is my dark side in life,it helps me get out what I cant say verbally.I am also rather romantic and love wearing Victorian style clothes.I lived in Israel for half a year before
moving to England and living there for four years.I now live in New Zealand (my home land) in a town called Wanganui with my Aunt,Uncle and Cousin.
