This is a collection of poems which I have been writing in my journal for quite some time now. If the poetry inside my diary could only talk, I am sure they would scream your name with beautiful metaphors which best describe you, love.

I edited these using Canva!

&&. Writing As My Escape

I was once a lost soul, searching for the light

In the midst of chaos, I gave all of my might

‘Twixt the battle of my mind ‘n epitome,

the eternal light would still glisten ‘pon me

Hurled by strong winds whilst in a wander,

I hoped that I would be saved by another

But I knew right from the very start,

I needed me to become a stalwart

With a pen and a paper, I write my afflictions

‘Twas my jailbreak in the chain of dejections

Instead of hurting thyself with a sharp knife,

scribble words—the story of your own life

O’er my fallen essence, I strive to continue

Unarmed, I vanquished the war inside of me

No stains of blood in the midst of a milieu

for the only fluid that has spilled is her ink

I am a soldier, battling with loneliness

With writing, I have escaped madness

That’s how the power of scribbling works

I have achieved victory through my words
