❝ but the memories that hang heaviest are the easiest to recall. they hold in their creases, the ability to change one's life, organically, forever. even when you shake them out, they've left permanent wrinkles in the fabric of your soul. ❞

this poetrybook was previously published under the title "midnight thoughts" but got unpublished because i was way too insecure about putting my (shitty) personal stuff out there for everyone to read. however, i'm back again with a new title, republishing some old ones and going to let these woeful and haunting thoughts evolve into this thing called poetry. maybe it'll help with the process of coping , maybe not. but it'll definitely feel good to be writing again.
