This work was first published when I was 13, and I continued adding to it up until I was 18. During those years I was going through significant traumas. I engaged in harmful coping mechanisms and romanticized them during that time.
I first unpublished these with plans to revise and remove some, but to do so would be disingenuous to the child that I was. This work was started as a cry for help, and now it is a collection of moments in time that I felt my deepest sorrows.
Some of these were school prompts, and some of them were not. As time went on in my teenage years I became a better poet, so the first half of this work is littered with novice uses of language.
Please keep in mind these things going forward. Read with caution, as this work contains themes of self harm, sexual assault, rape, grooming, and suicidal ideation. Remember that as you read you are watching a teenager learn how to live in a world that was hurting them.
(Seeing as I don't see a way to publish the work all at once, it will have to be part by part. I Apologize for the notifications)
