Poetry saved my life
Ever since I started writing, I fell in love with life again.
It ended my
depression
When I was so depressed that I couldn't even be happy about anything anymore, I found my way to poetry. When I wrote, I went to a whole new universe where everything was possible. Also reading was a very big inspiration, especially works from old german poets. Its like I could let go of anything bad and feel free and weightless. I dont have to think, I just am. Ever since poetry became the biggest part of my life, my personal therapy and my coping method.
It shows me new
perspectives
When I sit down and start writing, I fall into a flow. sometimes I write something down before thinking it. I even write things I never thought I could myself think of. It is scary but fascinating at the same time and it trains the brain.
A poem I worked on when I was 14
It´s my own
sanctuary
When Im lost and I dont know what to do or what to think, I write. It doesnt even matter where I am, when I start writing, an imaginary shield forms around me and Im safe. That will always be my happy place.
It gives me butterflies
Writing is my own personal drug. When Im down, It always gets me up. sometimes I read my own poems, when they are not darkly written, as if someone else wrote them for me and it makes me feel warm, safe and loved. I want other people who share the same fate as me feel those feelings too.
But even if I write a very dark poem to cope with anything thats going on, it makes me feel something. Not butterflies, but it makes me feel real. It shows me that my feelings are valid. And writing those feelings down takes some of those burdens off of my soul.
Never give up on
your dreams.
Even if you try to burn a book,
The story was written.
You cant see it anymore but it will always exist.
If you think its a bad story, go ahead and change it.
Use that existence, dont burn it down.
