He is also the author of "That Line Between Love & Hate; Emotions Poems of Passion."

He said poetry is food for your soul, and once you learn how to express them, only then can you begin to enjoy the rhythm of your heart. He has always been a psychological intellect who loves challenges of the mind, he studied the expression of human behavior and learned how to communicate with his expression, his favorite saying is, "the expression of your eyes can never lie even if you tried, they can't hide." His poems are accumulation of a poetic journey that he had embarked on since 1997; they represent the early ripening of a budding poet who is realizing his first experience as an independent and freethinking lyricist. His portfolio is not limited to one genre. He has authored poetry, and is working on release a Poetry CD, and also his second book. His poetic expression is a gift from God, which he will always use to glorify him.

His advice to the upcoming writers is to always capture their thoughts in whatever way that is convenient for them. "If you have to write on a piece of paper, record it on a tap recorder, or write it on your hands, whatever way it may be, make sure you capture it the way it came to you, because, if you don't, you wouldn't be able to recapture it the way it was the first time you thought of it." Don't hesitate to write what you feel, for your expressions are yours and the sky is your limit, for you never know whose life you will touch with your words.

~Romans 8:29~
"To those whom God had chosen, he set apart to become like his son."
