He told me he would stay

promised me he'd never run away

only to do just exactly

what he said he wouldn't;

he vanished

the moment I turned away

🌸

I think I was around 13 when I first wrote a short story in about two hours. I had tried writing a poem for a friend's birthday before that I think but of course, I wasn't exactly serious about writing at that moment. I was just trying to prepare a gift, that's all.

The story was my real start.

But I only started writing poetry last year. After making an Instagram page. That was my start of journey as a poet.
