Ariel's Poem
Written at age 21
You are my little baby girl
The most wonderful in the world
Everyday I hold you near to me
You grumble and gripe and bring me so many feelings of glee
I cannot tell you little one how deep my love goes
Because everyday it grows and grows
You’re the most wonderful thing I didn’t know I needed
With you our little family has been completed
You’re so intrigued by everything you see
You crawl around picking up everything and worrying me
Being a mother takes a lot of devotion
But there isn’t a thing in the world to bring more happy emotion
You need so much but I need you more
On being your mommy I could never close the door

Bio
I'm a first time writer although I've been writing short stories and poetry since I can remember. I'm writing the autobiography as a way to release what I've held inside for so long, pain. I believe I held this pain so close to my heart that my heart began to see pain as something precious, something special to me. My heart became fond to this pain and created a life to continue the pain. Living void of emotion, I let pain rule. I'm writing this book to free my emotions and unchain my heart. I want to release the pain I kept deep in my heart. I want my heart to feel a new reality. Pain has no value and is no longer precious to me. No matter how much I intellectually see this, if my heart doesn't feel it, I cannot live it. I hope others can find value in what I write. I want to believe when you turn your nightmares into your dreams, you'll never fear being alive and will always sleep well!
Major Influences
My biggest reason for everything in my life is my children, their love, futures and happiness are the reasons I exist!, Sparky, one of my best friends, was my biggest inspiration to write. He challenged me into showing my truest self and accepted me for who I was then he applauded like I was something special. He believed in me and helped me see what I said had value. When I didn't see that, he'd scold me for not believing in myself like I should.:), Then there is Gordy, a great editor but more a friend who cares. He's always worried that this writing was too much and hurting me by forcing me back into the dark places of my childhood. Even with his conservative nature he was still able to see the good in my extreme ways. I thought my writings would bring pain to others and didn't want to hurt anyone or burn bridges. He helped me to see how I could be burning paths to emotional strength and growth for me and maybe even others. They've both helped me to see the need to have faith in myself. They've helped me see that my true strength is that I'm being open and living in reality. It is through knowledge of my shortcomings, acceptance of my weaknesses, respecting my limitations but still having the courage to love myself that has allowed an open door to start healing.
