Poetry
A short collection of my poems. These poems all have a certain idea that is found throughout all of them. The basic, and most obvious one, is change. Then there is moving on, holding on, giving in, etc. While you read these, please ask yourself: Have I ever had to give up my best friend, then have them return to be completely different? Can I relate to having to give up a part of myself in order to try and be happy?

People say it will get better. But to be fair, most of them never were in your place. They say you will get happy again, but how can they know? I've struggled with trauma, mental illnesses, and self harm for many years. These are (mostly) poems - about me and my journey of getting better. ! As this is about self harm and other previously mentioned topics, it might be triggering. I don't glorify it in any way, though. I'm also not a native English speaker. If you find any mistakes, please tell me so I can improve.
