Writing for me is catharsis of my pain and anger. Writing to heal myself and others. I write what I can not say. I write scars on my soul . I write to people who are no more with me to listen. For all those special people who were ,who are and who will come in my life. You can write when you can't cry. You can put your tears into words.

'It' desires a connection. It is a dire part of being alive. We chase it, we find it, we part with it, then ponder how something blissful could be terribly short-lived. This poem is about that bliss and the lack thereof. I wrote this a long time ago, and thanks to someone I, years later, developed the courage to put it out there. Enjoy.

My pen name is Vevna Forrow, though my real name is Jasveen (Jazz) Marie Kaur (Core) which is quite common outside of the USA. I am a self-taught cartoonist, IT Professional, nerd, and writer. My poems spawn from my heart, feelings, and experiences over the course of 26 years.

Some of them are humorous whereas others are dark. My inspiration comes from my love of the 1999 film October Sky. I have also been inspired by Shel Silverstein, Carl Hiaasen, Shakespeare, Edgar Allan Poe, and Emily Dickinson. I often enjoy rewatching the 2011 Big Year film and Birdman of Alcatraz (1962) as well. I do love to rhyme and I truly thank you for your time! Copyright and credit details of all poems: © Vevna Forrow (Jazz Marie Kaur) 2021 who hails from Minneapolis, Minnesota.

A bit of Foreword here: My dear reader, today you are holding a book of poetry in your hands. I ventured to write this book a long time ago and as you see, I successfully made it happen to be ready. I withdrew most of my feelings from my soul decidedly, wrote them on blank pieces of paper and gathered all those into this book hoping that It will serve you and in general our society, and therefore become a beneficial treasure of you, reader's life (as it became mine already). I positively hope that my poems will drive exciting response from different crowds. Also, I anticipate that you will find your inner-self in these poems you are going to read. In this book, I've tried my best to synchronize my poems with beautiful minds of great people the world has produced so far, in order to make my poems more lovely and comprehensive, which means there are some great quotations by them.
