My Heart's Anthem

Dear reader,

There are times that our mind lingers in a void while our feelings are swirling at the pit of our stomachs. What do you do with it? Often we would stare blankly at a wall or utter incoherent words just to ease our burdens. This happens to me a lot and the best way for me to cope in this scenario was to grab a pen and ink everything in a piece of canvas, then you'll get this feeling of satisfaction like being able to see constellations in a starry night, spotting a picture in a puzzle, or solving a hard mathematical question.

This is the main reason why poetry became my haven and my safe place. This book is a compilation of the poems I weaved with every emotion and words I can fathom. I hope the messages I want to convey will make their way to you and that the magic of poetry will give you the same solace I found.

With these words inscribed in every page of this book, I hope you'll get to sing along with my heart's anthem.

Love,

Dianne
