What's even the point of writing if ChatGPT can do it better and faster? This is one of the most discouraging thoughts that has plagued my mind...and that of other authors and storytellers alike.
Nevertheless, writing - including poetry - has been a therapy for me since childhood. I truly hope there will be a purpose to writing for all future generations, because humanity will always be touched with emotion in ways AI software programs and robots can only simulate.
After a rather long break from Wattpad and writing in general, I have returned to present several poems I have written throughout my life. My goal is to update this periodically, and hopefully with the occasional life update and greeting.
I know my poems aren't perfect. They reflect my terrible English vocabulary and limited understanding of poetic devices.
The funny thing is that I'm also really, really proud I wrote them. I think it's amazing that my poems deviate from traditional, predictable rhyming patterns. It's amazing that they're imperfect and written by a simple human, rather than a computer output from a lazy ChatGPT prompt.
I hope you, as a human (?) reader, can appreciate all of this...and enjoy the poems that came from my heart. (Take that, ChatGPT!)
And with that...goodbye, random person on the internet I likely will never meet...hope you have an awesome day. Everything's going to be alright.

A Collection of Poems
These poems are just some of the little pieces that make up my life. Whenever I get inspired by someone or something, I write a little story about it in the form of a poem. In a way, it helps me express what I have in my mind in a very vague way. I'm not that kind of a direct person, but there are things that are sometimes, better to kept secret. Here, these poems are what I wanted to say to my friends, to other important people, to people in general, to the world around me, to life and each detail it possesses. Each poem has a central theme, and around that revolves a certain story that I want to impart, something too delicate to be expressed directly, something too complicated. Here, I want to share who I am. That's ... probably all ... that I need to say.Complete

This is a collection of my writing from the past 7 years. Before I started to write, I was a very lost individual, as are most teens, but I was lost in darkness. I was too afraid to move anywhere at all. I hid in the dark, debilitated by my own anxiety, sadnesses, anger, and hopelessness. I was desperate to be loved and feared it the most, I was a coward, I was self-destructive, I would mentally bend my thoughts to the point of bordering insanity. I was born into this world alone, and got too comfortable with it. Maybe I still am, but a fraction of what I used to be. This writing is extremely vulnerable, and potentially disturbing to others, as all my weaknesses, strengths, obsessions with making every moment sentimental, the sickening desperation I've had, the destructiveness, and the constant brutal reconstruction of my mind. Without guidance, it's been absolute intense chaos. Though, there is beauty in the darkness. Everything can be found in the darkness. You'll find that through my writing, I've somehow slowly become exactly what I've written. A living representation of my writing and what I wanted to be. Without myself even knowing it. A lot of my writing themes are based around nature, or some kind of natural aspect. The imagery I paint with natural metaphors is constant, the animals, just like you and I, the plants, and all other living things. I planted these seeds in my mind, unknowingly at the time, where I now feel the deep dark green jungle pressing at the inner walls of my skull. It's all that I want to consume my mind. There's so much to learn. The magic of nature, and it's infinite wisdom. It's as if I have been on this path all along, and I didn't even know what I was doing, yet my body and mind were passively taking care of me. Giving me and eventually showing exactly what I want, and wanted to become. I have every moment, every instance of suffering, and every epiphany to be thankful for. Soon, I'll be at peace from the raging storm.Complete
Aphrodite
"There's a blaze of light in every word, it doesn't matter which you heard: the holy or the broken, 'Hallelujah.'"- Leonard Cohen The poems in this series center on two characters: I, the speaker, and You, the speaker's subject. I is not a specific gender or orientation. I is meant to mold to the reader's idea of who they would be. We follow I in not only a love story, one where love blossoms and lingers until its destruction, but a tale of self-discovery, where, after a long and arduous quest for it, I finally finds happiness. Contents: Prologue- Definition 1- Sonnet 2- Astonishment 3- Hello 4- Knowledge 5- Infatuation 6- Notice 7- First 8- Idol 9- Consummation 10- Homecoming 11- Seasons 12- Satisfaction 13- Interlude 14- Change 15- Quest 16- Investigation 17- Faith 18- Wisdom 19- Enough 20- Stop 21- Words 22- Broken 23- Fury 24- Envy 25- Pleading 26- Memory 27- Nothing 28- Regeneration 29- Realization 30- Onward Afterword- Freedom WARNING: Mentions of domestic violence, rape. There's some hefty and kind of kinky sexual content in this, so be cautious if that makes you uncomfortable (9, 11, 12 especially). Infidelity and abuse are pertinent themes, and religious imagery is woven in (mostly pagan, Christian). Please remember your own limits as you read. Thanks!Complete
Hidden Feelings Book 1 (Poetry) (Journaling)
It's just a bunch of songs I wrote when I was feeling mad or sad or extremely happy and motivated. Their just a bunch of lyrics formed from my emotions. I mean I was trying to figure out how to express myself so I started using rhymes to begin with. I mean some songs don't only have rhymes but most of my songs are rhymes with 4 or 6 lines and their all original works of mine so don't bother trying to steal them or anything. Also this is an add on I've started writing journal entries in here as well and I may put my two books together. My 'Ange's Journal', and 'Hidden Feelings' together. I don't know why, it's just a spur of the moment thing and a feeling I had. These are all my experiences and thoughts I've had but never said out loud. But if you don't like it or are offended by what I say your doing something wrong in life. But I guess it's also me just letting everything out and telling my story in an unorganized way, you know.Complete
Dream Journal (Youth through 2025)
Hey there, welcome to my dreams. A special little insight into my mind. It's a wacky place to be. Trigger warning; anything can happen. That's not always good, I have lived through some triggersome experiences and I am aware that this can be impactful to a reader. Please yield to personal discretion before proceeding. I will try to remember to put more specific trigger warnings before each story however I am an imperfect being so feel free to remind me in comments should I not clarify the dangers in accurate ways. Hold me accountable, at least then someone would hold me lol This is all the dreams I've written down from childhood through year 2025Complete
The Book of Books-Idea Collage
Beloved quotes or sections from my readings. A local author asked me what I tend to read to get an idea of what I might write like. I drew a blank, but what I told him he was able to figure out I was more of a literary and not mainstream writer. I thought I might share what I'm currently reading to also hold myself accountable...to keep reading and make time for it. Him telling me that I was a literary writer made everything click as to why it takes me so long to read books. I typically go for very deep content...borderline academia...It's not easy reading...rich in content and thought...gets the gears going and is sometimes darker thought as well. So now I have made sure to throw in some fun books as well to lighten the mood and to make reading more enjoyable. I have just realized while documenting my reading that I am more or less doing research for my book.... And I haven't been giving myself credit. I think it's because I was reading these books anyways... But I knew that I was using them to try to help me write my book. But since it's an autobiography and it's fiction (sort of...mostly...pseudo-soft-sci-fi really) I wasn't thinking it was research. Does that make sense? And now I realize that it is. So I've been so hard on myself going slow... But this also doesn't have a time limit as a friend mentioned to me... And now that I realize I'm doing research for it and I'm not just picking between wanting to read recreationally and write with them being two separate things... I feel a lot better about the process. So now instead of saying I decided to read instead of write I can say I am researching in order to better write my book.!["My Little Monster~"|| Selever X Reader [DISCONTINUED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/268673945-256-k202187.jpg)

These Stories were Written with ChatGPT
My own perspective/opinion: ChatGPT is a high intelligence AI, that can answers almost all questions, and do certain tasks, such as: story writing, essay writing, solving math equations, etc. I've tried making stories with chatGPT, the story made with chatGPT has a clear structure, and for me it is quite rigid. I personally think that humans are better at making stories more fluid and less rigid, and probably you'd say more alive. In my opinion, the stories that were made by an AI feels unnatural and robotic. I can tell you by the process of making some of the stories using this AI. I can tell that this AI only has the ability to write short stories, and throughout the process this AI sometimes do not follow the story it has just made, and just created another whole new story, which it was unrelated with the previous one. Well, anyway please enjoy the stories :) P.S: the cover was also made by an AI, also I only copy pasted the text from chatgpt and probably did some modificationsComplete
Love from all Views
Meeting him again wasn't the plan. Breaking apart wasn't the plan. Being consumed by my sadness and pain wasn't the plan and yet, I went with it. But now, I couldn't take it. I changed, for the better or the worse is up to you to decide, but I knew I changed. So I wasn't going to beg to his feet. I wasn't going to follow after him like some sick little puppy. No, if he wanted me to do that, then he could go and shove his problems down a juice box and suck them. " Come on, let's fall in love all over again." " So you can break my heart all over again?" ~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~- Beautiful things were hard to come by. Hard to find, hard to see and hard to savour. That's why I cherish beautiful things, because soon, like many things, they fade away. *Click* another picture for another rainy day. *Click* another picture to treasure on a sentimental moment. *Click* another picture to show her. Many teased me for being a guy who liked beautiful things, but she didn't. She didn't judge like those adults at my parents' social parties. She had captured me with a simple click of a camera and a smile my way. " I swear, you love that camera more than me." " Never." ~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~- AUTHOR'S NOTE- So if any of you haven't noticed, I've decided to make this a short stories about small romances. The sad, the wonderful, the odd, the great. Everything I can really think about would be in here. I'm also going to continue this up to 100 chapters, which is a small goal of mine I guess. So let's see how many chapters we can get to ☺️.Complete
Stale Words
𝚂𝚝𝚊𝚕𝚎 𝚆𝚘𝚛𝚍𝚜 is an ongoing book and collection of poems and sonnets made by me, inspired by my thoughts, dreams, and personal experiences. As someone who lives with depression and anxiety, a lot of my thoughts are bound to not be very pleasant. But hey, some of them are quite philosophical and positive. But that's rare. Join me on my journey through sadness, happiness, curiosity, mystery, and so much more. I was inspired to make a collection of my poems, and I decided to just do it. My poem, "Falling For You Against My Will" features lyrical references from the following: Head Over Heals - Starset ALWAYS BEEN YOU - Chris Grey
