Hi. I've been a follower of yours for sometime now and I absolutely love your work. I'm sorta a writer too. (like not a real one i just write for myself in random bursts it's weird.) Anyway, i just gathered up the courage to say this and i hope you don't mind i mean it with great respect for you. It's just your writing stuck with me esp "the morning after i killed myself" and i wrote something like it.. it inspired me to write my version in a way?? I was dealing with such thoughts at the time and it made me want to write after so long. I was just wondering if it would be ok if i shared it with you? You dont have to read it if you dont want to it's just im trying to take steps to change myself and me asking you was one of those steps so please don't feel obligated it's cool if you say no. (And i really hope this doesnt come across as rude or anything im not really socially active and my first language isnt english i dont want to offend in any way.)

Yes of course! I would love to read it. Thank you so much for reaching out to me about this. I'm honored that you were inspired by my work! And you don't come across as rude at all. :) Your English is wonderful and this message made me really happy!

not a question, but I want to say thank you. I've been reading your poems on tumblr since I was 13. i'll be 20 in four weeks. i've loved and lived and lost and tried and failed and succeeded. somewhere in an alternate universe, 8th grade me is scrolling through through this website crying about having an awful day at school and they are stumbling upon this blog for the first time. and in this universe, junior in college me is logging back into this website for the first time in years, crying because I'm so thankful I've made it to type this message.

I'm so thankful you've made it too. I can't believe it's been seven years already! I'm sure that your birthday already passed since you sent this message, but I hope you had an absolutely wonderful one.

This message made me so blissfully happy. I remember writing on this blog in 8th grade and then writing on it again as a junior in college! It makes me so glad to picture you, a total stranger but somehow so kindred, reading my work at various stages of your life.

Your twenties can be so exquisite. I truly hope you enjoy the first year of yours. <3

You’ll be in a completely different spot a year from now! It’s okay to feel the way you’re feeling. Rest assured that it won’t stay that way forever.

Thank you; this really means a lot.

I have been a silent follower ever since i can remember joining tumblr (A long long time) and i wanted you to know that, reading your poetry was the gateway for me falling in love and understanding the impact of poetry. Since then Poetry has only served to enrich my life, become a place of solace and catharsis. Which is all to say: You've touched the life of someone at the other end of the globe and your words matter.

Thank you.

Thank you so much for this message. I know it's been awhile since you sent it, but I really need to read it tonight. Thank you for following my work for so long. It overjoys me that you've fallen in love with poetry too and that you've found it to be cathartic.

I am so appreciative of what you shared with me. I hope you will always be in love with poetry. <3

Hi all, this is my best friend's short film! I'd love if you checked it out or shared it. He's a very talented actor and I'm so proud of him!

I read your Poem "For 20 year old who have never been loved". I feel so related to that as i am 19 and no one loved me. I am short, ugly and no one really likes me. And sometimes it scares me that the relationship standard this world have, i will never be enough for it and will always stay alone. I feel unlovable and always feel like the person whom i like deserve much better than me. It hurts to know i was born unlovable, i need to get used to this life, cuz no one love me ever ~ thx for poem😭

Thank you so much for sharing this with me and pouring your heart out to me. I felt the same way at 19 and never thought I would be in a relationship or find someone to love me. I know I am a stranger, but I also can guarantee you that you are not unlovable or undesirable. You are uniquely you, and one day you will find someone who treasures you. I can promise you that.

Love and romance are hard! Sometimes they are not all they are cracked up to be. But I firmly believe there is someone out there for everyone, even if it takes awhile. <3

i feel like one thing i didn't know/hear about grad school before going in is how tired it can make you

like i knew/heard about how stressful and busy it can be and hard to juggle, but i wasn't prepared for how many naps i've had to take or how exhausted i am after some classes

i already took one nap today and am feeling like taking yet another one tonight which is not typical for me

I just made two insane grilled cheeses and I am still reeling!!!!

I made one with pickled jalapenos and mascarpone and the other with pesto, fresh mozzarella, and a fried egg and OH MY GOD. Both were on sourdough.

Creations since then have included pesto with gouda on sourdough, and mascarpone, jalapenos, and apricot preserves on sourdough, as well as gouda with pickle relish!

Update: newest creations include one with ricotta and tomato relish on sourdough, and another with pimento cheese spread and pickled jalapenos on sourdough. Insane...

Even more grilled cheese creations I made recently! Tomato relish, pickled jalapenos, and pepperjack cheese on peppered parmesan bread. And another one with avocado, fresh mozzarella, and pimento cheese spread on peppered parmesan bread

OH MY GOD

Is anyone here ever so exhausted they just lay lazily on top of their bed with the lights on without attempting to sleep in some random state of awareness lmao
