Introduction to ME!!

Who am I?


I am a 30 year old female who is from South Louisiana. I have had an OK life, growing up with both of my parents there and one sister who is 5 years younger (yes, she is 25). On this blog site, I will go by the pen name Deliya Rayne. I always said if I had a child that I would name her that and since children don't seem to be in my future, I want to use that.


By profession I am a teacher and have been for 9 years. I love teaching and can't dream of doing anything else with my life now. I would like to go back to school for a phD in microbiology, but it really would be just for me and not worth the money I would have to put forth for it. It can be tought at times, but I love my job! (How many people do you ever hear say that?)


I am not married, but have been with the same person for 7 years. He and I have out moments, but overall we have a great relationship! He is my best friend as well as my soulmate!


Why am I here?


I am not here to be a professional writer, nor am I here because I think I am great or wonderful at it either. I am here because I want the opportunity to share a part of me...an opportunity to try and regain the person I once was. I am here for the motivation to live life to the fullest again, maybe leaving a little of me behind or imprint a life. I used to write a lot when I was much younger (from about 13 through the time I went to college). It gave me an outlet to release any sadness, frustrations, or turmoil in my life that I was experiencing. Most of my poems are dark and seem desolate because I felt most like writing when I was down...some people drink and smoke, others fight...me I used to write.
I actually want to type in the poems I wrote long ago then begin some new works. I have tons in the attic, old notebooks, binders, and just scribbles here and there. I like free verse and occassionally rhyme. I am not the best speller, but I try. I would like feedback on some of your opinions, whether it be positive or negative. Please bare in mind that I was very young for much of the writing and when dates I wrote them are available, I will include it. The dates really dont show up until about 1993 to 1995 and last until some of the last ones I wrote were done.


Like I said, please leave me feedback, but be considerate. Don't just leave something rude and discourteous. I believe we all like to be treated fairly and with dignity. You can be negatively honest in a decent way. If you feel you cannot, please don't say anything and click away. Noone is forcing you to stay and read this!
