Growing up is hard. The changes (physical, emotional, and mental) are confusing to maneuver. The experience can feel very isolating. Your teen years are a time for self-discovery, self-growth, learning, hormones, love, and heartbreak. 
This series of poems was written during my teenage years (15-19). It shares moments ranging from and between sadness and joy over the course of highschool, and beginning of university. 
These poems explore the teenage struggles with social groups, mental health, and romantic feelings. 
I wish I had this book. I might have felt seen and heard, and maybe a little less lonely. 
I hope you feel heard through these poems. Or, maybe even inspired to write your own experiences and share them.

MELANCHOLY | Melancholy drips from my fingertips. SOON TO BE A PUBLISHED PAPERBACK. COMING 2025! This melancholy drips from my fingertips so slowly, you begin to forget I even exist. All of me, the hard parts of flesh you could never seem to love, drips down the drain. I am waiting for the day for your fingers to unscrew the pipes, dig through debris and mess, scrape your heart against the rust, just to find me, so we can go through it all over again. Here, in the pages I find myself, in the ink that writes against my flesh, I will whisper the sadness, the heartache, and the decaying for all of the unspoken. Perhaps under this layer of melancholy, the girl I once knew still exists.    First poetry collection in the series. Original poems based off real life experiences. #12 in poetry.
