My journey started in Haiti, where I spent most of my life. Due to some unforeseen turn of events, as experienced by many living in a 'third-world' country, my family migrated to the United States. I was only 17 at the time. Finishing high school in Miami, I ended up going to college. But it soon became apparent to me that college was not the place for my creativity to thrive. So I left and started pursuing what I believe to be my calling. I have always been writing poems and songs as a hobby, but I never thought I would be writing them for a career. But slowly, I started getting praise from my friends and family alike. I always knew I had a talent for it, and with a little more support from those closest to me, I decided to keep writing. That is how I compiled this collection of poems. 27 kiss and tales is my first ever book, and it is a story about someone I met who is very special in my life who also helped me feel things which I never thought were possible. This compilation is a navigation for the ones' whose hearts speak only in tears. I believe everyone has a calling, and I am fortunate to have found mine.
