Not much to tell, but I'll say it anyway. I've been writing poetry since I was 9 years old. My works are about depression, anxiety, love, life, suicide, heartbreak, etc. I honestly don't know how to write happier poems. Tried but failed. I am well-versed in many different forms of poetry like sonnets, odes, elegies, narratives, haikus, epics, ballads, soliloquies, etc... But my preferred writing form is free-verse.

Underwater and I still can’t breathe.

Isn’t that what I always say?

I’ve been stuck here in such a jaded place.
The walls are closing in and you’re nowhere near.
You left...

Polaroid in the Rain

I’m staring at your Polaroid
Laying on this rain-stained concrete
Pulling at my heart strings
Your smile that’s fading
I’ve been playing along as this Marionette
All decisions made final by the sound of your voice
You’ve controlled me to a...

Unravel part II

Have you found a way
To unravel all of my seams
Every stitch sown tells a story
That’ll leave a lasting impression
Immune to your poison
Yet I’m left here still staggering
Hardly unraveled
What have you done to me
Shell shocked and petrified...
