Ch39: Why I started poetry?

My journey with poetry began in high-school,

I fell in love with a girl, but things didn't go too well.

I was naive but my feelings were true,

It was this girl, that ignited the poet in me, for sure.

The pain, the sorrow, made me write,

Then A-levels came, and physics took flight.

It was my dream to be a physicist,

Showing my inventions to the world.

But that dream was broken,

And I tried to remove myself from thy world.

Two attempts were made,

Yet, somehow I was saved.

I guess the Almighty kept me alive.

So, I thought let's make a mark with this life.

With the pain and suffering as my fuel,

I began to write my poems.

Each passing day, I got better and better,

And finally decided to share some poems.
