    Hiii!💗💗 I'm sharing my very first lyrical poem with you. I don't know much about poetry or literature, but my intense love for art made me create this. I don't do very well academically; I'm easily distracted and I even lose focus in my favorite class. But I'm someone who thinks a lot, dissociates often, and gets a lot of déjà vu. One day I just sat down to write and circumcising my heart, without any calculated or fancy literature. I hope you like it!(P.S. I don't speak English, I just feel like the language expresses my way of seeing things better).

    "November 4th" is a poignant reflection on witnessing death and the lingering weight of grief. The poem contrasts a bright, ordinary day with the tragedy inside room 7069, using sensory details like the final beeps of monitors and "Amazing Grace" to create an intimate, emotional scene. The narrator quietly observes, feeling isolated as life outside continues, capturing the suspended, haunting space between farewell and permanence.

    A poetic reckoning, sung in the voice of Lucifer himself, who spirals into obsession not merely with a mortal woman, but with the cruel, fleeting brilliance of mortality. Through scorn and longing, wit and despair, the devil confronts the absurdity of love-love for something perishable, finite, and unbearably human. It is not just her he desires, but the raw vitality of her existence: the way mortals burn so brightly, then vanish. What does it mean for an eternal being, cast out of Heaven and shaped by defiance, to ache for what must die? In this maddening reverie, Lucifer is torn not by romance, but by rapture itself-rapture in the face of mortality, and the torment of wanting what he was never meant to touch.

And all of this jumbled in with a 50 year old war, the uprising of the minority species of the realm, and being kidnapped back and forth between her father, her grandfather, and a clan of immortals, Aeralyn Reilly really just wants some peace, quiet, and a slice of pizza.
