This book is a collection of poems I've written over the years. For a long time, I wrote poetry as a vent for my emotions during my darkest times. Sometimes, I'd remove myself from the poem and write it as a way to lift myself back up again. Sometimes, I'd use poetry to try and make sense of a character or friend's perspective.
Some of these poems were published on this account a few years ago. I took them down because I felt that some were just too personal to be public. Now, I have a different perspective on the matter, and I'd like to share my poetry again. Not all of it--some things I'd still prefer to keep to myself. But for what I do share, I hope you enjoy it!
Please also note that wattpad is not the only platform I share poetry. I did have a few apps at one point I would write poetry on, and I sometimes share my works among friends both online and in person. So, if you think you've seen some of these before... you probably have. Know that it is intentional!
