I call myself Tainted Butterfly for simple reasons...I am a free spirit with broken wings who will never truly be able to fly. Writing is my escape from the world and truly one of my greatest loves. I only write when inspiration strikes me. Truly everything inspires me in some capacity. Words, people, life, experience. I write about many things. Some things have happened to me, somet things are written for other people, some are written out of words that need to escape my soul. If my poetry touches you, please share it. And even though I can't fly, I do hope my words fly through the world touching each person as they have touched me....
