Introduction
Creative writing is anything where the purpose is to express thoughts, feelings and emotions rather than to simply convey information .Writing is the expression of language in the form of letters, symbols, or words. The primary purpose of writing is communication. People have used many tools for writing including paint, pencils, pens, typewriters, and computers. Creative writing is considered to be any writing, fiction or non-fiction that goes outside the bounds of normal professional, journalistic, academic, and technical forms of literature. Works which fall into this category include most novels and epics, as well as many short stories and poems. Writing for the screen and stage, screenwriting and playwriting respectively, typically have their own programs of study, but fit under the creative writing category as well. That is according to my some sources of information. Creative writing is an expression of who you are. My philosophy about creative writing is that in order to truly do it impartiality, you must become a more open person who is really able to get in touch with the raw parts of yourself. You need to remove from your life all of the things that are clogging you up emotionally, physically, and spiritually. It is only then that you can express what you are meant to. Creative writing is writing from the heart. It is based upon your way of perceptions and specially your imagination.

Preface

The purpose of this book My Timeline which contains a list of random poetry in different form is to show my creativity to compose my literary piece In my own style of writing, my writing has been an outlet for my thoughts and feelings. Many of those writings were manifestations of feelings that I had for others. Even though the feelings may have vanished, the history is still there. Even though there may be pain associated with some of these writings, they are all my creative work, and therefore will always have a place here. Everything that I have written is a part of what brought me to where I am now. Even though there are things here that I would sometimes rather forget, there are also good things that I will keep in my heart forever, if for no other reason than the pure emotion of my most intimate writings.
