This idea came to me late at night after reading through some old poetry of mine. For just those few minutes of reading through those poems, I was able to get in touch with the younger me and remember the emotions, struggles, and excitements of that time in my life. Words are the most common way we communicate our thoughts with each other, but poetry is how we use our words to share our emotions. Many of the poems you'll find in here focus on fate, perfection, determination, and humanity - all things that have been on my mind a lot lately. Through these poems, I hope that you catch a glimpse into my mind, and hopefully you'll think about the things that matter most to you in your life, and how you express them- either through words, music, art, or otherwise. It's those things that help us connect and understand one another. Have a lovely time reading <3 ♪. 。・⚘・。.♪ ・instructions・ Tap, space, or use right/left arrows to move through the thumb and intro until you reach the menu. From there, simply follow the key.
