america freedom immigration poetry romania sonnet

This is a sonnet I wrote for my British and Literature class as an assignment we had to do. My teacher liked it a lot and complimented me on it, so I hope you enjoy it as much as she did.
It's about my great great great grandparents on my dad's side of the family that immigrated from Romania to America. At the time, a lot of immigrants from Ireland, Germany, Italy, Romania, and other countries facing problems, such as the potato famine in Ireland.
I had actually got the inspiration from an Irish poem called, "Mo bhrón ar an bhfarraige", (My grief on the sea). It's written in Gaelic but I have the English translation.All Rights Reserved

MELANCHOLY | Melancholy drips from my fingertips. SOON TO BE A PUBLISHED PAPERBACK. COMING 2025! This melancholy drips from my fingertips so slowly, you begin to forget I even exist. All of me, the hard parts of flesh you could never seem to love, drips down the drain. I am waiting for the day for your fingers to unscrew the pipes, dig through debris and mess, scrape your heart against the rust, just to find me, so we can go through it all over again. Here, in the pages I find myself, in the ink that writes against my flesh, I will whisper the sadness, the heartache, and the decaying for all of the unspoken. Perhaps under this layer of melancholy, the girl I once knew still exists.    First poetry collection in the series. Original poems based off real life experiences. #12 in poetry.

LEFT UNSEEN by kiapoetry_

"Left Unseen" In a room full of a thousand voices, have you ever felt like your silence screams the loudest? Being ignored isn't just an experience; it's a wound that whispers fears of invisibility. Left Unseen is a poetic journey through the raw emotions of being overlooked, forgotten, and invisible. It unravels the suffocating weight of unspoken words and the quiet pain of existing in shadows. Each poem resonates with those who have felt unseen-whether in crowded rooms or intimate spaces. This collection explores the fragility of connection, the ache of loneliness, and the courage it takes to reclaim your voice. Relatable. Honest. Haunting. For those who've felt ignored, Left Unseen offers the solace of being understood. #1 poetry
