I've had a burning passion for books for years now. I remember coming up with my own stories at the age of three. But I've come to also love poetry.

I've spent the last two years writing poetry to make sense of the chaos inside my head and found that it's actually my therapy.
Moreover, I've learned that I'm not bad at it and that I love writing even more than I thought I did.

This book is basically a bundle of the best pieces I've written so far.
The majority of what I've written is extremely personal, sometimes in an incomprehensible kind of way; it may take you a while to come to understand what the meaning of a certain poem is. And that's okay.
I hope you enjoy these poems, they may not always be masterpieces but I take pride in them anyway.

I've wanted to publish these poems for months now, but I've never had the balls to actually do so. Until now; I've realised you can't keep putting your dream on hold. You can't keep telling yourself "I'll do it later, when I'm ready". Because truth is, you'll never truly be ready. So you might as well do it today.

I hope you each learn something from this bundle, whether it is to overcome your anxiety, or to never stop following your dream.

I love you all for reading.
Stay alive. Stay weird. And remember to always be yourself in the best possible way.
