The dreams and memories of our youth are often pale as watercolour and lost before having had the chance to be painted into colours more vivid and lasting. A defining property of water is to reflect. And so, like water, I reflect on the topics of love, loss, longing, healing, hope and the questions we ask ourselves as we cross the bridge between adolescence to adulthood. Like individuals coming of age, the poems in this collection straddle on the edge between naïve idealism and realism. Ultimately, these poems answer the most important question: during a time when everything around us, including ourselves, change how do we find ourselves and how do we make an impression that is bolder than any watercolour? *** Some quotes from this collection: Alice in the Wonderland of her Youth "I thought of my once-blooming youth. A youth as sweet as the nectar of a flower, But just as short-lived. It was a youth of pastel hues That seemed to have ended Before it could be put into hues more vivid." A Storm of Thoughts, A Residue of Memories " 'How would you describe yourself?' You once asked. 'As a vessel holding A storm of thoughts, A residue of memories' " Moth Dances "I watched as your wings beat against the winds, Stiffly, Rapidly, Like the persistent beating of a heart. You were dancing with the flickering light at the end of the street, It was broken, But so were you." *** Hope you fall in love with this developing collection - I have truly put lots of thought, time, and heart into it! Feel free to vote and comment on any of my poems - I would love to know of any parts that you relate to, any images that you find particularly striking, or any suggestions that you may have!

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THIS IS A FIRST DRAFT AND THERE ARE GRAMMAR MISTAKES I pushed at his chest, but it was useless. He stayed, his arms caging me in. "Anastasia," he hummed against my ear, my name rolling off his tongue. "I know you want me just as bad as I want you." I couldn't deny it anymore, I was his. ~>~ A romance novel Started: 11/28/2017 Finished : 03/04/2018 Highest Ranking: #96 12.27.2017

It's been two years since he has gone to study abroad. I still remember the day I came to live in this house after my parent's death. I still remember the day when he suddenly came into my room. I was looking at him with shocked eyes because of his actions. He locked the door and started coming in my direction. I knew that I was in danger but I can't move my body. Bloody hell, my body was held by the cold gaze of his blue sea-colored eyes. With long steps, he was coming towards me, and in a flash of seconds, he was in front of me. He grabbed my hair making me look into his eyes, my eyes were close afraid of meeting his cold star but the next word from his mouth made my eyes short open. "Who was that man Jane with whom you were laughing and talking answer me. Who was he," he shouted in anger. I took in his appearance his jaw was clenched and his eyes were burning in anger. H-e-he saw me with him. I knew I was in danger. Now, what should I do was the big question for me. Warm tears filled my eyes ready to slip out from the corner of my eyes by remembering that day. The more memory of that day still you heard it right. First place in The Scribblers Award 2020 for best novel

He's living his life as his settled it. Everything is under control and perfect fine, until he met a certain PA, which turns his world upside down. He may find love, but everything else is falling apart. This intriguing story tells you how he feels and deals with the feelings he's now discovering as at the same time trying to keep his personal life away from his business and keep in the control of his universe. I do not own "is it love?" and it's characters.
