Poetry

I truly enjoy writing poetry and I have done a lot of poetic artworks in the past - I feel like it would be magical to share it! I didn't know much about poetry at the start, but then when I got lured by the magics of it - I was trapped. It's exactly like story writing, but in a rhythmic style. I guess it's the notion of - you don't know what's ahead of you unless you try. PS: These are scattered, individual poetry in one book. They're generally really short and take a few moments to read. They all contain different genres and are all different styles of poetry.

Layers of Me

The first layer is cold,

The layer I show the world.

I use it to protect and ward,

So I won't get hurt.

The second layer is kind,

It's sweet and welcomes.

Open wings I spread by my side,

So I don't see others hurt.

The third layer is dark,

A cold humour to protect the deep within.

This side slips with close hearts,

So I can barrier my true self.

The deepest layer is broken,

No one has seen this layer.

I've tried for its awoken,

So I can live my true self.

I want that special someone to know,

To see the deepest part of me.

A soul so beautifully broken and sewn,

So I can love freely and true.

I haven't written in a long time, because every poem for the last two years were all for him and for that healing me because of his love and support.

Now that I will let go of him I wanted to recognise the person I am and where I want to go in the future. Who I've become and the layers that make me to protect myself.

I've given some time for myself to finally publish. This poem has really got me started on the thought - Who am I? What kind of person am I?

And through new lens I see myself...
