Keisha R Simpkins-Author

It’s been a minute since I’ve posted. I’ve lost my brother to cancer and my mother 6 weeks later feom a car accident. It’s been a struggle to promote my books or even write new poetry. It is because of the love of Christ Jesus that I haven’t lost my mind from grief. And it is through Him that strengthens me that I will write again and get through this.

When you start to change into the person God created you to be, people will do their best to make you doubt you who are. They don't want to see you be better than who you were. They want the new you to continue to do the things the old you used to. Not going to happen. The bible says If any man be in Christ (and I am), he is a new creation:, old things have passed away; All things have become new. (2 Corinthian 5:17) Never forget you are not who you used to be. Don't let anyone tell you differently.

“Welcome to America” is a poem from my book, Thoughts of an Introverted Mind. This book deals with social issues, relationships, and other topics. These poems are designed to make you feel and think. Some poems are lighthearted, while others are think pieces. Thoughts of Introverted Mind is available on Amazon.

This is my journey of healing through poetry. With God’s guidance, I was able to delve into my past and discover the root to a lot of my insecurities and inability to sustain a healthy relationship. Through my writings, I am able to turn my pain into power and my brokenness into beauty.
