This is a collection of love poems: but more like my love journey with my significant other. The poems I wrote for him, the memories we shared and the lessons we've learnt. The growth, the moments, the emotions; all packed together. Why did I write this? I wanna be a writer. That's one. I wanna be able to read it when I grow old. I don't want to read just a romance novel or biography that other famous authors wrote. But mine. So that when me and my significant other are 60 and in bed together, I could hold his hands, read the lines where I first met him and fell in love and tell each other that we've found our happily ever after. I wanted to make my own fairytale. When you read it, you'll see that it's mostly written in my perspective: for him. That's why I named it "Letters." 2022 is when I met him. That's why I named it "Letters from 2022." You'll find 3 chapters. Our beginning, our honeymoon phase as a couple, and then us continuing our love as best friends and partners in crime. The poems will include ones from 2023, ... till I finish this book. So I'll add more. But I think "from 2022" makes sense a lot. That's where we begin after all.

August is slipping through our hands like a half-sipped bottle of wine and this year for me has been the most Unhinged, deranged, yet somehow on some level chic and comforting. I found and discovered things I never thought I would and I lost some things of great meaning which also I never thought I would. This year sure has been a rollercoaster of a ride, and the most terrifying thing about this is that the year hasn't even finished yet. I've felt a lot of emotions like madness, happiness, sadness and confusion and homesick-hysterion and a flash mobs of questions posted in my mind like post it notes just screaming. And so I got tired of them. And I wrote an anthology of the events that happened to me this year and have happened to me in the past. This is a concept record. Each track is a letter to someone, or some situation where I wanted to say I lot of things... But I couldn't so I decided to let my mind and heart intertwine, and speak those words that I couldn't. I hold Sensitive Strings close to my heart because it's my first anthology. Although it might not seem like it right now, but in future after release of several other anthologies, I want to look back at this record and just laugh, because it's a depressingly funny record of an 18 year old queer boy, and it's probably things that most people relate to because unlike *coughs* some people, I don't gatekeep my trauma as unique, because it's trauma not a competition. I hope that you all will love this record as much as I do. And I hope that Sensitive Strings will keave you all to want more. And I promise with me more is always coming. I just want to say to all those people who supported me in this, Especially all of my friends, you know who you are. I love you and this wouldn't have been possible without you. With all your love to me, And your greatest empathy, I take this step further without looking back now, SENSITIVE STRINGS IS OUT NOW. Love you & Thank you. Riv.
