final note

I decided to finally end this poetry book after two years of working on it, and I want to start out by saying thank you. Thank you to the small group of people who have stuck around on Wattpad and to the even smaller group who decided to read about my life.

My life has really been a journey since I started this two years ago. Looking back, everything was so different and it blows my mind! It's so liberating realizing how happy I am now, and how much I've changed. I'm so happy you guys. I still read through this book and its entirety every once and a while and I notice how much my poetry changes and progresses.

I guess the reason I decided to stop was that I wrote all that I wanted to. It just feels right. Poetry has been a huge part of my life, basically ever since puberty. I started writing poetry at a time in my life where I was depressed, and I was stuck in that pit for a very long time, up until about 2 years ago. I think it was just something that was a part of my past, and now that I'm all healed up now, I don't need to write anymore. But I'm always grateful for poetry and all that it's done for me. Both reading and writing.

The latter half of these poems are dedicated to someone that I met about 10 months ago and has changed my life ever since. I wrote down all of my poems (some that aren't even published on here) into a notebook and gave it to her as a gift. I gave all my words to her. And I haven't written a single poem since.

So to everyone that sees this: Thank you for reading, listening, relating, understanding...everything.

So, for one last time, I'll be signing off.
