Protecting Your Innocence 

Inspired by lifes obstacles, poet Kimplachat Downs promotes the empowerment of women in her poetry collection, Protecting Your Innocence. She encourages women to tell their stories, resulting in the shedding of excess baggage, bitter pasts, and vague future views about love. The key mission is for women to find their way back home resuming the role that it is okay to be loved beyond their pain.

Downs is an ambitious young woman with a story to tell, and she has found her passion in writing poetry for and about women. She offers inspiration to women, encouraging them to find hope as they move beyond their daily challenges. With her strong views and voice, she conveys a message of hope to the world of women. In her poetry, she draws from her personal pain, recalling the countless times she has been lost and drawn her strength from God and from those she holds closeher family and friends.

Protecting Your Innocence provides guidance to women who need to know their worth and to discover who they truly are: women of substance.
