Hello hello! Welcome to my writing page!
Since I was little, I've always had a small love for writing.
Whenever I had time, I would write stories in my chomebook or in a
piece of folded up paper in the tiniest font I could write. It
wasn't until I was 10-12 years old when I lost interest in it due
to mental health issues. I picked it back up just recently and
have been writing bits and pieces ever since.
Over time, I've began to notice that, out of all of the types of writing, poems seem to be the type of writing that I prefer. They're short and sweet, which is perfect for me. These poems have all been categorized into tabs named after flowers:
Every piece of writing will have content warnings when applicable. I may post more mature pieces in the future, so I wouldn't recommend anyone under 18 to read them.
I may also have small sections where I go into detail about any symbolism that occurs within the piece or the overall backstory/inspiration behind it.
Happy Reading!
Just as the name implies, forget-me-nots symbolize remembrance.
The bloom simply says, “I will never forget you,” and
“Do not forget me.”
These poems are all about the past! Growing up, I thought that my childhood was kind of boring. But, as I got older, I realized that there were actually a lot of things that happened that I just forgot about, both good and bad.
i sometimes wish i was bullied when i was younger
so that i could have a good excuse to hate them
instead, they were nice to me
i talked to them and they responded
they never invited me anywhere
they never gave me their phone numbers
they never let me into their inside jokes
but they were still my friends
even as they said some racist things
even as they hung out with their other friends
and made plans what didn't include me in front of me
after all, friends are just people who talk to you once a day
right?
Nothing catches the eye quite like a bush or bouquet of bright red roses.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that roses are a symbol of love, passion, and romance.
Love is in the air! At least, that's what most people say. These poems are about love, romantic and familial. I'm more of a physical touch kind of person, so these poems can't really show just how much love I have to give :)
In this universe,
I am your older sibling
the one who raised you and
taught you two the world
whenever I call
you two tell me you miss me
In another universe,
I am a planet
while you two are moons
that orbit around me
forever until the end of time
En otro universo,
en donde mama y papa
nunca se fueron a los Estados Unidos,
estamos caminando a casa
por los calles de Guanajuato
bolsa llena de pan dulce
piel quemados en el calor
White orchids are also associated with sadness because
of their delicate and fragile nature. They require a
great deal of care and attention in order to thrive,
and they are often seen as a symbol of the fragility of life.
(Psst, ignore the fact that the orchids in the picture are pink.) Umm... I am a little bit ashamed at how many poems I have about sadness. Not that it's bad but oof I am just proving the sad emo poet stereotypes. But hey, I feel better after writing these, so it's not that bad.
I've always been proud
of the fact that
if I concentrate hard enough,
I can feel
someone touch me
I can feel
someone's breath
on my neck
A warm hug and
a soft kiss
on my cheek
I would lie awake at night,
arranging my blanket
to mimic the warmth
of someone who doesn't exist
I bury my head
into the blanket,
pretending that
the heartbeat that I hear
isn't mine
yellow and red stars
litter the edge of my vision
as they speed past me
I'm so cold
and so tired
it should be fine for me
to reach out towards their warmth,
right?
In some cultures, crocus flowers are also associated with joy
and happiness. The bright and vibrant colors of the flowers are
believed to bring positive energy and uplift one’s mood.
Happy poems! Umm. There's none right now, but there will be! Trust!
Flowers are a beautiful and meaningful way to express your feelings.
There are numerous flower types and colors to choose from, allowing
you to create a personalized bouquet that matches every recipient for every occasion.
These poems are about everything else that doesn't fit into the other categories. That's it.
Every time I read a poem,
I get awestruck
by how they write it
Every word
is
special
Every stanza
is a window
to the author's soul
How do they do it?
How can I do that?
I have nothing special
to write about
I'm not even
a
good writer
I can give you
half-assed symbolism
I can give you
a simile
But I can't give you meaning
I can only give you words on a page
My favorite part to eat
is the eye
It’s soft,
chewy
and perfect in a dish
Eye soup was the first
traditional family recipe I ate
when my father deemed me old enough
Although it hurt
to pull it out of my socket
and I
couldn’t really
see much for the rest of the night
