okay first of all, jesus christ
4k reads?? this is actually insane oh my god tHANK YOU
this is so freaking cheesy but wow i can't even believe it
cuz wowow that's a whole lot of human beans that read my poetry
and hopefully enjoy it lol
second of all, i just wanna say that i don't always write about people that exist. sometimes i like to create and describe a fictional character and give them a little story cuz that's what i do. i'm a creative writer lol.
but yes, sometimes i do write about someone in my life that has impacted me in some way.
in case you're curious, the ones about real people are:
-envy & assumptions
-cloverleaf daydreams
-the boy who didn't deserve the pain i put him through
-the blow of painful reality
-the blow of painful realization
-my ginger lifeboat
-why is my shield of innocence fading so quickly?
-the perception of an omniscient
i'm pretty sure that's it so far. so yeah, ones like "the boy with the heart of gold" are about someone that i made up and is completely fictional
the reason i'm specifying this is in case anyone i know irl reads this and wonders who i'm talking about (cuz that's happened before lol)
third of all, wow. this is technically part 151 (i have a few drafts lol). wowow i've written a lot of poems lol. it's kinda hard to believe that only last year i claimed multiple times that i couldn't write poetry
i hope someday i'll find the confidence/courage to show these poems to more people
it's really difficult to be vulnerable tho, especially to irl people. cuz by showing someone something you've created, you're showing them a piece of your heart that's tender and sensitive, and you're giving them the choice to rip you to shreds and destroy you or to welcome you with warm arms and a glowing smile.
and yes, it's midnight and probably a bad time to write this hahahaha
sorry for getting deep
it's just that i've been finding myself in a few situations lately where i've been given the choice to be vulnerable or to harden my mask more
okay well anyways
if you enjoy my writing and would like to read more of it, you can check out the stories i've written!
the good ones are:
-paisley's daisies
-citrus stars
-clouded minds
-the sunbeam snakes
-in hiding
the rest are pretty crappy so
and yes those were in order. i'm the most proud of paisley's daisies cuz it's the one i'm working on currently and i think it's pretty good lol
so yeah that's all. i haven't done one of these in a while lol. sorry to bore you but it's over now haha goodnight frens ily
also happy holidays!
((and watch the movie "it's a wonderful life" it's such a good christmas movie okay bye now lol))
