HOLA!!!
I know my posts have not been consistent as this is a stressful time in my personal life but, I wanted to just give you an update on this poetry book. The last chapter will be Chapter 156 Our Summer : My Truth. To catch up, over the next 2 weeks of December, I will essentially be spamming you all with updates. I hope you will enjoy what essentially is the ending of this book!!!
I keep looking,
looking for a connection to the past;
Holding onto what didn't last.
My heart tethering me to what I lost,
no matter what the cost,
the past grabs onto me like a cast,
molding me, shaping me in ways I never asked.
When she's done, I hold on,
afraid to let go and see what I have become.

I think this poem is a bridge between the beginning of this book and the end. I started this book when I was in a dark place and lowkey I wonder if I am going back to that place. But still after all these years, my past still defines me and I still define myself by my past. It's a funny thing to see yourself grow and change and still essentially be the same. I'm not sure if I am making sense but nonetheless I hope you enjoyed the poem! And I hope you all are enjoying the end of the year!
~ Have you ever recorded yourself crying?
