I wrote these poems years ago, and in my other poetry books, I've also written those years ago. Some of my poems date as far back as my early childhood. I was writing most of these from ages 11-18. I'm 22yo now. Yes, I cringe greatly from my own work.
But these poems are all very raw, unfiltered, and a lot of them are filled with memories I can't just let myself forget. So please don't judge before you know my story, though you never will for I'm no longer writing about myself anymore.
I took years worth of hiatus so I could break myself out of this awful self-deprecating chain of reliving my darkest moments. I'm not healed, but I'm trying. And I really hope that one day, all of this painful writing will bring me comfort and clarity. That one day, I'll look back on these and be proud of myself for getting as far as I have. That day won't be today (May 4, 2024) but it will be one day.
Be careful when reading any of my works if you so choose. I hope you enjoy these poems.
