Author's Biography

           Hello. My full name is Jada Jadege Shaian Joseph. I am 14 years old. My birthday is July 29, 1999. I love to dance and sing. I was born on Brooklyn, New York. I want to be an entertainer when I get older. An entertaining singer and dancer is what I want to become. What makes my writing unique is that I write what I feel. If I am feeling upset or angry or happy or mad, I write poems and songs. I like to write when I am not forced to. The same way I like read books that I can pick out. I like writing realistic fiction and memoirs. There isn't a specific author that I can say has influence me or persuaded me to love writing and English. I believed that I reached this stage of loving writing by myself.

Poem 4: Pain from the curse

Have you ever hurt so much that you don't know how to feel pain anymore? That's how I feel all the time. If you stabbed my heart, I'd feel nothing. If you burned my skin, I'd feel nothing. If you ran over my body, I'd feel nothing.

Empty is how I feel.

I must be the fakest person I know. That smile on my face everyday is the last piece of the old me that I have. I wish I could walk around without my emotions. So I wouldn't have to feel anything. I fake my smiles, I fake my happiness, and I fake my emotions. I think my problem is that I care too much. About other people. I need to leave them the hell alone and start caring about me. I need to save myself from this depression. I'm tired of being so good. I just want to be free. I just want to give up. I don't see why people want to live on earth. I want to live where I have no problems. I want to feel nothing. That's the best feeling out there. And the sad part is that I feel this way because of you. You pushed me into this deep dark hole. I gave you a chance to be in my life and you screwed it up.

Forgiveness is easy. Forgetting is impossible.

I could never not remember how you took your chance for granted. You made me into this person. This devil with the feeling of nothingness. At first, I was hurt. I felt betrayed, lied to, and abandoned. But soon after, I felt blank. Nothing but blank. No words for the world who didn't even deserve to hear what I had to say. No signal to show everyone who was asking, that I was okay. No need to be the person I use to be. I guess now looking back, that person wasn't me. Now I'm someone I'm not and will never be.

Poem 3: Your breath is the voice of your soul

Your breath is the voice of your soul
With every word, it's inside of you speaking
Your pure core

Your soul speaks through the breath
Wanting to say the words but they aren't coming
They're stuck in your heart being processed
They are traveling up through your body
The words except your soul's rejection
And they come back up resurrected

Burning throughout your throat scratching to come out
Scrapping your tongue dying to be free
Clawing through your teeth, prying them open
Begging to be free and be heard
As you open your mouth, you don't regret the journey of your words
As you say these final words, you feel free
Your breath is the voice of your soul

Poem 2: You are unlimited

You are unlimited because you are everything and you are nothing.
You have all the power in the world but you have no power at all.
You are always in control but you are always being controlled.
You uplift your world but you bring your world to lowest places.
You make yourself feel like the best person in the world and you can be the most depressed person here.
 You do more than your best but you do your very worst.
You put out the positive but you take in the negative.
The best and worst thing is that there is only one of you in this world cause all this pain and create all this happiness.

Poem 1: Patience Pays

Patience is the key to your future
It will come when you are ready to unlock the door
Rushing delays the gift
The gift will come when the time is right
My time will come
When i receive the gift, I am blessed.
God blesses me with my much deserved future.
The key to the gift lies in my hand
I am able to open the door when he allows me to
