Short poetry I wrote during the period in which I felt like my life was falling apart. My pet died, as well as two of my grandparents. My parents could not be there for me, because they were stricken with grief. My sisters were distant, and I never liked them anyway. I had lost all of my friends in an event earlier that year, so I really just despised everyone. During that time I learned how to find peace and truly achieve happiness by searching for a better place in my writing, whether it was positive or painful.
