I am Dlamini Vathiswa: a writer, a daughter, a sister, a mother, and a friend. I stand tall in my authenticity, knowing that I am exactly who I am meant to be. I refuse to change myself for the expectations of others, for I believe that God created me to be exactly who I am today, tomorrow, and in the future.

I thought by now, I'd find release, Forget the...

Written Woes: Unveiling the Power of Putting Pain to Paper

Unveiling Pain should I Ink My Sorrow?

The field awaits, with clouds overhead, Mom's wisdom: smile through pain, tears unshed. Yet beneath laughter, a tempest brews deep, How do I heal when my tormentor roams, not asleep?

How do I move on when...
