"I dropped my heart into the sea,
  hoping I could be a little more free."
- Ocean by Parisian 

"Am I a fool for falling when I don't know in what way you'll catch me?"
- An Ocean I Used To Know

You once were an ocean to me. You made me swim and dive, and see a whole world of beauty underwater. Then you broke me and I felt like I was drowning in that same ocean that was once so beautiful. Now I've found the shore again. I am not stuck in that ocean anymore. It's all just a memory now, but through the poems I wrote back then, I can still remember that ocean well. I'm happy to be in another place now.

Through poems I documented my journey of falling in love, enduring heartbreak and finding happiness again. I hope these poems can be a comfort to others. Maybe in its relatability, maybe just because you like reading poems, or whatever other reason. I hope you enjoy this collection of poems.

Art of Letting Go by OfficiallyLun

" Let your heart grief, It's okay. It will heal eventually." Art of Letting Go captures the raw and authentic emotions of moments, a roller-coaster of feelings, and a definition of life to choose not to give up. This book was to give people a chance to relate themselves to the pages and dip themselves with emotions that involve grief, loss, heartache, abuse, and feeling lost in life. A glimpse of these pages may change someone's life by giving them purpose of hope and shed light in the darkest of their hearts. I wrote the "Art of Letting Go" about 3 years ago without an end because I never knew how to moved on from a chapter that felt like a never-ending cycle. I left the story feeling like it was untold. I found hope and my transfiguration in life to help others in search of the light again. In the experiences, challenges, and struggles that I faced over the years, I had to give this book an ending it deserved. We deserve closure, we deserve our voices and stories to be heard and to be told. After 3 years, I came back to finish a story that needed to be closed and a chapter in my life that needed to heal. I realized that I struggled to finish this because there were parts of myself that couldn't heal from the past. I struggled to break free from the pain and it always kept coming back. I was really lost at some point in life and I came back to re-reading my poems and reflected in them. I found pieces of myself, teaching me that I was already in the process of healing all along. I was fighting all this time. I was resilient from all the storms that I've endured. My point is, YOU are too. Whatever you are going through, your storms will wither away and you will find your ray of light again.

Just things I write well I'm not in a very good Place. I thought these aren't half bad. So why don't I share them with other people not only myself? So here we are I hope you like them. Also if some of them are Quotes or Poems you've seen before feel free to tell me, because I never looked anything up just wrote what came to mind. So maybe I wrote a Quote, that has already been thought of, and of course Thank you for even clicking on this worthless, trashy, and utterly pointless book... Side note it gets better at the end of this book. The beginning is 6th grade me (11-12 year old me) so it's pretty fucking terrible, but who gives a fuck anyway? Not Me!
