Write Out Your Drops is an eclectic poetry collection speaking on an array of themes as it pertains to being true to oneself. The author brings listeners on an expressive journey through lyrical verses and graceful symbolism that makes one's individual experience seem more understood through the collective.

The words you are about to hear have been ongoing for many, many years. They are not written to make you feel bad for me; they are written more as a lesson to myself. The words were never prethought but always came from some place within me forcibly picking up a pen and putting their utterances down at once. It was as if it was a command from the very depths of me, a strength in me that has always been there. Someone once said it was a goddess in me, the strong goddess who drives us on till we see the truth.

The soul's journey is one that discovers the true nature of the divine and each soul is love itself. Peeling off all layers of reality, only awareness and love remain. My poems have healed and transformed me, by sharing them I hope they will heal and inspire others.

In an abandoned dance studio, there's music and dancing unheard and unseen by anyone. The whispers in the shadows laud praises upon the figure that spins around the room.

A dance that goes beyond the borders between the worlds is performed within flickering shadows.

A microscopic and intense view of the sometimes invisible and ignored parts of the world we inhabit.
