Introduction! (Not a poem)

Hello! My online name is Mac or Doorknob. My pronouns are He/him/she/her, and I'm Omnisexual. I have a wonderful partner and 2 adorable dogs.
This book is for me to share my poetry and help others vent and see they are not alone. Poetry is an outlet to me and it helps me express emotions that are difficult to communicate other than writing.
As stated in the description, I will not be taking requests for a few different reasons.
1) These poems are about my personal experiences and have that feeling of honesty and authenticity to me. It feels untruthful to write about things I've never experienced and it wouldn't have that Darling touch.
2) It feels disrespectful to me to write about others pain for content and reads. Again, these are about my own pains, and I don't feel uncomfortable writing about others pain and wounds when I do not have those same scars.
3) It's hard to write as it is. It took me a while to have the motivation to write this introduction in general, let alone to write more poems. I'm going through a rough time and motivation is horrible. I don't want to feel guilty about not writing something for some stranger on the internet.

4) Poetry is for me to express myself. It's a pass timing and something for me to do as a hobby. I will not let others force me to do it, for it will loose it's serotonin levels. This is a hobby and coping mechanism. Not a job. Don't force me to do it.

Those are my reasons, please respect my boundaries and wishes. If not, I will put a reminder in the next chapter and you will be blocked.

These poems are sometimes short and freestyle, not long, rhyming poems. Short and freestyle is just what I work best with. If you prefer longer poems, then I don't recommend this book.

Seeing as these poems come from mental illnesses that other people suffer from, and these experiences and feelings are similar to others, I will have a vent section for the comments. But please only vent on the marked section that looks like this
'💚Vent Section💚
Please use proper trigger warnings and tone tags
Don't be judgmental or unkind'

Also! I'm not the best with checking Wattpad notifications. I forget that it's there and just check it when I remember.

When replying to people I don't know, I may come across as awkward and unsure. It's because I am. I don't know how to react or what to say to most people. It's just difficult. So please be aware of that fact before commenting.

With that said, please enjoy my poetry!
Have a good day/night, drink water and kiss your homies good night.
~Love,
