My role in society or any artist's or poet's role is to try and express what we all feel. Not to tell people how to feel. Not as a preacher not as a leader but as a reflection of us all.
I grew up with just my mom. She and I were like best friends. She's a very independent woman and I admire that about her. In my life I've tried to be like that. To be okay with being on my own and being independent.
