In this collection, peaches taught me the subtle standards for men across the globe. It taught me to be aware of the peach's lustrous nectar, it taught me to evade having fuzz upon my face, it taught me to be aware of my weight, and it taught me to grow up knowing whether you are either an orange or a peach. From the women on the rocks trying to learn to sing to climbing the ladder following the leader, I have learned that we are all taught a standard, and a variety of rules for our consumers on the outside to perceive. However, I have learned that the more subtle I become on the outside, the easier it is to demonetize me as a follower instead of a leader. The poetry has helped me find a way through the lies I have believed in my family for a long time. I should break this chain, striving for my own and protecting my thoughts, all while sticking true to my heart and following the real paths I am meant to take #23 (poetry) 4.15.22 #14 (prose) 4.17.22 #38 (poetry collection) 4.18.22 #8 (Poetrycollection) 6.1.22 #7 (poetry book) 12.5.22 #40 (poetry) 12.6.22

❝In my mind, there is pain. I am exhausted. I feel defeat from my hair tips to my feet- my body feels the stress weighing down on my shoulders. I try and try every day, but nothing seems to go my way. In my mind, there is pain, yet I try because one day, I will feel great. The body, mind, and soul are connected, and it is up to us to determine how to respect them.❞ - Me These writings are my observations and perspectives, some full of laughter and fun, others painful and dark, suffocating, leaving me with nowhere to run. ✿✿✿✿✿✿✿ A collection of unedited poems I wrote extemporaneously (ages 16-18), as well as a chockfull of quotes.
