Some poems I've written over time
I've always written poems as a vent or as something that was therapeutic to me, whenever I had a feeling that I couldn't describe in regular sentences. Speaking or normal words have never been my strong suit, so the more creative, artful way of writing really helped me feel better. They were like journal entries made into songs.
Most of my poems were like little letters of reassurance to myself, so I hope some of them may give you a smile or a little comfort, as they did to me.
Additionally, tho, there are some random poems that are probably just about the weather or things that had nothing to do with my mood, I probably just looked out the window and saw rain and was like "Hm. Imma write a poem 'bout that"
Also, these were originally written for self-indulgence and less for an audience, so please excuse if the rhythm is off or if the rhymes are weird or if the wording is confusing (Take everything said with a grain of salt; these were originally made to just advise me, not anyone else). The only things I had in mind were "They have to flow and have syllable patterns" and "They have to rhyme." (I *know* it doesn't have to rhyme to be considered a poem, but it's far too satisfying (SATISFIEDSATISFIEDSATISFIIIIIIEEED) to reread the poem and see all the rhymes line up)
Also #2, most of the poems I didn't make names for, so the titles of the "chapters" will just be a random word/some random words I pick from the first line or two
Also #3, the poems I'll be putting on here are going to be the ones that end on happy notes, so I hope you don't get annoyed by a sprinkle positivity and optimism here and there
It's currently 3am as I'm doing this, so I have no idea if this is a good idea, but if it's not I'm sure someone will tell me and I'll do something about it lol (if this is a bad idea pls tell me)
Additionally, I have no idea why I'm up at 3am but whoopdeedoo
