'BEAUTY TO BROKEN' ( MY POETRY BOOK) COMING OUT THIS SUMMER:)
Poetry is something that has become an outlet for me, and outlet to relieve stress about certain situations. It has been something that I have used to cope with the messiness in life, and make art. I have began to understand more about love, that love is a moving sea. You have to let the unknown dance between you, you have to let it consume you. You have to be present, and run at your fears. Us humans are designed to love, and when we deprive ourselves of love we deprive ourselves of living.
I learned a lot about what love means to me this past summer, these poems resemble how I learned to love me. The imperfectly perfect version of myself. I learned to celebrate my inner warrior, by letting go and not caring about this worlds opinion of me. By living for the younger Kate.
My Open Mic Poems
It has always been my dream to present a poem in NYC, these poems are vulnerable, raw, and honest. Sharing my truth with the world has allowed me to become more accepting about myself, and being able to share that with the world has been a dream come true.
Real Life Candids
Here are some pictures of my first open mic night! It was a night filled with anxiety, and excitement but overall love. It has always been my dream to pour my heart onto a platter, and show others they are not alone. Heartbreaks are inevitable, but by going through something and not running away from it you grow. Never ever forget how powerful you are, you know your truth and no one can take that away from you. With love and simplicity K🤍
'Hey I Love You.'
This was my first ever poem at an open mic, it is about discovering feelings that you were not able to catch sight of during a relationship. This poem is about understanding you deserve self respect, and self love; and above all you are not ANYONE else's opinion of you.
'If I am Being Honest.'
This poem was about the new version of myself that I discovered. My heartbreak has allowed me to become more comfortable in my own skin, and find this new sense of confidence within. This situation showed me that everything happens for a reason. X
'Green Eyes.'
It took me a while to come to terms with what exactly occurred this past year, I was so consumed with pleasing someone else. I forgot how wrong it was that women are critiqued for actions that men dont think twice of. I spoke out this time, and because of that others did too. Im a leader, and I will continue to use my voice. You are not alone ❤️
'To The Little Me.'
This is a poem that reminds me of a time where I struggled to fit into society. It is about hurt, and devastation. I turned it into something I am so incredibly proud of. I hope this shows you, that dreams are attainable. You can turn your dreams into reality.
'Lonely Boy'
We all fall for empty promises, infatuated with an idea we create in our minds choosing to see the good in someone who will end up breaking you like a promise. This is about someone who I still vividly remember telling me he was going to give me the world. I have come to realize how much more there is to life without him. This is for my heartbroken club, if you are broken, you do not have to stay broken, allow yourself to love again.
'Dear Grandma; There Is this Boy Named Peter'
This is about a time in my life where I allowed myself to get infatuated with someones presence.. I allowed myself to put such high expectations on a boy, only for him to break my heart in the end. I knew it was coming, the pain, the heartache, and the betrayal. But this time, I broke my own heart. Thinking he was my prince charming. When you are experiencing a heartbreak it is about coming to a point in life, were you feel content with being by yourself. I put everything onto this boy, and when he left, a part of my heart went with him.
