Little ray of sunshine.

Just writing what I feel. Consider this an outlet as sort of a letter I'd never send. Or at least... not for a long long time. I have a friend, I like her. She says she likes me too.

I don't want to die.

Written at a low point. I'm struggling a bit at the moment. I needed to vent. No I won't do anything , I just needed to get this out. Maybe someone out there can relate, I don't know.

My Heartfelt Vow

My partner is going through a rough time currently- I wanted to express to her that I'm with her through thick and thin, so I wrote this. I plan to send her this also.

A passionate confession

So... It's been a while. I recently entered a new relationship and inspiration struck to write about my feelings. Hope you enjoy!

Fixer Friendships

A short poem about those friendships that perhaps don't last long in person- but last a lifetime in our hearts. The friends that help make a person who they are.

The UK Lockdown Lowdown

This is far from my usual style of writing however I figured seeing as my country is going into a second lockdown- I would try something different and a little more dysfunctional in my poem. <3

A Letter Addressed to You

Okay- so this was written for the woman I love- who recently hasn't been 100% herself. I wrote this for her as a way to make her smile as well as a short footnote and I figured I'd put the poem here

For Eleanor

A poem for the girl who has stolen my heart.

Afraid to be alone (not quite a story- more a biographical confession.)

Okay, this isn't a story but I need to have it written somewhere. I really want someone to see this post, not because of sympathy... Rather, I want people to know they are not alone if they face this.

True Love

I wrote this 18/7/16 - expressing my feelings on true love and my own bitterness about the topic.

Choices

This is a poem inspired by choices.. in particular to do with my own choices that I have to make.

Poetry

This poem is one I wrote for English to oppose the negativity projected in Larkin, Plath and other poets works.

Would

'Would' is a poem all about the question that everyone at least once in their life comes to think of. "If looked different and had a different life, would I still be me?".
