"Never Judge anything by its appearance. Even a white rose has thorns and a black shadow."
                                      -Unknown

A flower blooms
as another dies. 
Truth looms 
over white lies,
for fake smiles are spread
in broad daylight,
and true tears are shed,
only in the company of the moonlight. 
                    -Me. 

Even the beautiful moon has a dark side, one which is mostly never sought. Join Samaira as she reveals different truths of the world and its people and makes you see reality in a whole new perspective. 

Inspired by: 1:11 by Jade, @Starburst- 

All these poems belong to me, if anything doesn't belong to me, I'll be mentioning it. Please don't steal my hard work. Thank you.

Blood Orange Periphery

44 parts Ongoing

My suicide had been two years in the making when I decided not to follow through at the last minute. Over the past decade, I've written poems, books, short stories, fanfiction and hundreds of thousands of words, but nothing felt complete. This collection of selected works was meant to be my final offering- the only thing ready for posthumous publication. Blood Orange Periphery includes poems written in the months preceding the end-that-didn't-happen, some of my best teenage scribbles, and journal entries that chronicle the transition from death-planning, to recalibrating life.
