I've never really given writing poetry a try. I've always stuck with writing stories, coming up with characters, and planning out future novels that I have yet to actually finish. I've never shown many of my poems to anyone so it's a bit nerve-wracking posting them on here. I'm not really embarrassed by my poems because I know I still have a lot to learn as a writer, but since I've never shown anyone these poems before, it still makes me a bit nervous!
In this poetry book, I wrote a few poems about what it's like to have hopeless crushes. I wrote about people that have entered my life and changed it. I talk about my insecurities, the way I can't help but compare myself to others, my occasional days of sadness and my occasional days of hope. I will eventually write about how it feels to grow apart from people, how I've been losing my free time to reality, and what it's like having to leave my teenage years and entering the real world, but this collection is still ongoing, so if I'm being honest, I haven't written all of these yet! But do be patient because eventually I will put all of these feelings onto paper! (if I get motivated enough to do so!).
These poems are like an open part of my diary I'm not afraid to share.
Anyways, I hope you enjoy reading them and maybe relate to a few as well!
Thanks for reading :)
