Historias de Gaypoetry

For everyone else who lingers upon hitched breathe and sleepless nights. *Writing poetry started out as a coping mechanism for me so a good portion of my writing is about my trauma* *All pictures used are not mine, as any teenager would do I copy and paste pictures from Pinterest so unfortunately, I am unable to give a source for every single picture.*

I never meant to notice him. But his laugh cracked something open in me, and suddenly he was everywhere - in my head, in my chest, in every poem I swore I'd never write about a boy. I tell myself I hate the way he makes me feel. But loving him feels like breathing for the first time, like finally understanding myself, like standing on the edge of a truth I'm scared to say out loud. This is a poem about the boy who became a lighthouse in a room that never glows - the chaos I keep choosing, the almost I can't let go of, the him I can't stop orbiting.

Poetry for people who no longer want me, and some for the one who does.

Morning: coffee, smoke, routine or religion? Rotting fruit, flies, God and devil. Am I the profane... or the pet-shop poodle?

A collection of poetry. 'Sifting' investigates love, loss, and change through the salty air of the sea, the falling leaves of autumn, and the shining sun of summer. For those who are too deeply introspective, who give more love than they receive. Artwork by Duane Keiser

"Echoes of the Stars: A Poet's Odyssey" is my heartfelt collection of poetry, inviting you to join me on a profound journey through the cosmos and the depths of the human soul. Each poem is a delicate whisper from the stars, reflecting my gentle musings and unique perspective on the world. In this odyssey, I explore themes of identity, love, loss, and the infinite beauty of the universe. With a voice that is both tender and powerful, I aim to capture the essence of what it means to be a small part of a vast, mysterious cosmos. Join me on this celestial voyage, where every word is a star, every verse a constellation, and every page a step closer to understanding the profound mysteries of life and the universe. "Echoes of the Stars: A Poet's Odyssey" is a timeless collection that I hope will resonate with anyone who has ever looked up at the night sky and wondered about their place in the grand tapestry of existence.

This is a collection of poetry that I wrote to describe how things have been throughout my lifetime. From childhood, to being queer, and even to how things are currently. Some poetry for those who need it: Things will get better even if they seem under the weather. Out in the snow you will eventually glow grow and let go.
