Hi fellow Wattpaders!
          	
          	Yes, my poem anthology is supposed to be complete, yet I keep adding poems that come to me in the dead of night.
          	I know I have written multiple poems about love, though these are the thoughts that keep me up at night. We all have our demons, am I right?
          	
          	So, I have written a new poem, titled: "A Drowning Waltz" and I don't know if it would be my last poem about love, though I know every poem I write, I am able to better articulate this longing in my soul.
          	
          	I hope you enjoy this one!

@ricardolopes_25  I totally understand poems that come in the dead of night.  I've definitely had a few of those!  :)

@Evan_Binley I am interested in all three of them haha. You made them sound quite appealing!

@ricardolopes_25  Thank you.  That's kind of you.
            
            I guess it depends what you're into?
            
            "Squire" is the first book I ever wrote.  The emotional side of it (and the personalities of the two main characters) are based on my first same-sex relationship from my teenage years.  It came runner-up in the Wattys twice and has had really good feedback.
            
            "Gates of Heaven" is my poetry book.  If you like reading poetry as much as you like writing it then this might interest you?  I've covered themes of homophobia, heartbreak, falling in love etc. Much of it is based on my personal experiences and feelings, although there are some poems which aren't.
            
            "The Taste of Him" was my first attempt at writing a trans character, and is my most recent publication.  I won't give anything more than that away, because there are a lot of plot twists, but so far, it's been well received.  (The reason I've put that one out there is because of how we "met" over Collin and Heather.)
            
            I hope that helps!

Hi there fellow Wattpaders.
          
          Yes, I used to be far more active here, writing stories and reading others. Though my life has turned upside down a few years ago, and I haven't been able to be here 100%.
          
          ... until now, that I have the following book:
          https://www.wattpad.com/story/348344900-a-symphony-of-whispers
          
          a collection of poems that might make you understand what has gone through my mind, these last years, and what still does.
          
          The book does appear as complete, but as I heard a doctor say to me: a doctor has a hard time retiring. I also keep adding poems to this book.
          
          And not to jinx it or whatever, I am on a lucky streak, have been writing poems daily, and before I was in a dark place and in writer's block.
          
          If you desire, please take a peak at my book, there are sad poems, but happy ones as well, some will make you reflect, others may make you feel understood.
          
          And with that, I say goodbye, I'm one poem away from you all!
