A writer describes an inner voice that steers them away from self-destruction. Through poetry, music, stories, and comics, they found a way to express themselves and understand who they actually are.

It's my, me and my like authentic self, my little, my inner voice, my inner calling has always been around and it always tries to pull itself up anytime I'm, anytime I'm getting myself in a shitty path, you know? And it all comes out in like my writing. I've always been like a big reading and writing nerd. I would write poetry, I would write music, I would write stories and comics all the time, and it would always come out through there.
