Who am I?
I am simply a humble mind traveler that longs for the taste of divine and purposeful words; words that build the path to the eloquent garden of thought, where the only fruit it bares is knowledge.

Perhaps that was much too dramatic for an introduction?


My name is Kayla. I am a 19-year-old college student, majoring in psychology, who has a deep interest in all forms of writing. (Well maybe not ALL forms.) I'm also quite artistic. I've always been a little on the eccentric and creative side. Anyway, here's some fun facts about me:

My favorite color is red

I play the flute

I am a grammar fiend

I love to talk

If I had one wish, I would wish to have the ability to fly

I'm addicted to Harry Potter

I'm horribly, and unfortunately, gullible

I collect faeries (not real ones, of course)

My favorite flower is a rose

My astrological sing is Gemini

I love Agatha Christie novels

Spinach is delicious

I would die without music in my soul

I always keep my notebook and a box of mints with me at all times

I love climbing trees

I have an obsession with eyes

Technology hates me

My favorite patterns are stripes and stars...which is funny because I just described the American Flag

I have a Sharpie fetish (no, I don't sniff them)

That pretty much sums me up....



~Words of wisdom from Socrates:

"Would a journey not be worth taking if at the end of it, in the other world, we should be released from the self-styled judges of this world, and should find the true judges who are said to sit in judgment below?"

Anyway, I hope you all enjoy my lovely assortment of poetry I have posted for you to read. (Not that I think all of my poetry is "lovely." That would just be egotistical, now wouldn't it?) Please, I encourage you to give me advise, critiques, suggestions, anything you think could make my writing to your satisfaction. Do not be afraid to tare it apart. I will not be upset if you do.
