“Poetry and lyrics are very similar. Making words bounce off a page.”
“Most of us fear reaching the end of our life regretting moments when we didn't speak up, say I love you, or say I'm sorry.”
“You have people come into your life shockingly and surprisingly. You have losses that you never thought you'd experience. You have rejection and you have learn how to deal with that and how to get up the next day and go on with it.”

“I am convinced that every effort must be made in childhood to teach the young to use their own minds. For one thing is sure: If they don't make up their minds, someone will do it for them.”
“I mean, I grew up in a community where people took care of each other. I grew up in a community where my mother, my parents, my extended family really wanted for children to be nurtured and challenged and not harmed.”
“I would read the Shel Silverstein poems, Dr. Seuss, and I noticed early on that poetry was something that just stuck in my head and I was replaying those rhymes and try to think of my own.

I won a national poetry contest when I was in fourth grade for a poem called "Monster In My Closet.”
