this is a collection of short poems that I’ve been working on since the golden days of Tumblr. I’ve made them into a paperback edition that you can buy here, but you can read all the poems for free below
preface:
I just like to write short stories and melancholic poems
I always wanted to put them in a book or something like those Bukowski reads I held onto as a teen
maybe because I could never manage to write a long story
I used to send some of those, at night to close friends or to start close friendships with SMS, of all means
I wrote most of them at night some of them while under the influence some of them while sober
most of them I just wrote to express myself. I was an emo kid, after all
most of what’s in this book has been shown only to a handful of people, most of them gone from my life now. I’m not really a people person
I have changed something as I went over the poems and most of them are not, and will never be, their authentic, original version
it’s just who I am, now
some stories are true, some are fantasy. I won’t tell which ones are what, as I don’t think it matters
thanks for reading, — unapologetic.af
