i dont remember where i found the quote, but i first liked it bc it rhymed nicely. later on i interpreted it as a symbol of ppl. could totally be projecting a friend breakup and could totally be wrong

i had a poetry professor a while back who LOVED found poetry and got me into the habit of writing down any phrase that i encounter and found funny or interesting or profound or wtv and anyway it's my most prized possession. after you start collecting quotes and phrases and words they line up in your notes app and it makes a beautiful profound collage of your life, currently the one in my phone is almost 200 lines long, but here are the first 30 or so lines for reference: i was outside the matrix with watercolor at list

i'm a real sentimental, nostalgic person so the idea of finding meaning in the winter sun or being moved by the way the light falls is very familar. (the analysis i wrote on this poem made my literature teacher cry)

I came across a rec on here a few days ago about life being so serious yet unserious, because sometimes you eat a McChicken and everything’s okay for a moment or two. Silly, simple things can bring joy and laughter amongst the struggles y'know. It made me think about this poem.
But I'm so so sorry, that’s really fucking awful. You didn't deserve any of that. It can be so hard to put yourself out there in the first place, I'm sorry you got nasty folks. Like it's terrible that people even need to preface their work with “hey I'm not claiming to be a good writer, not looking for critique, please don’t come for me, this is just for fun” and are still met with absolute plonks saying “you have committed irreparable sin against my eyes for posting this, actually. I must inform you of this.” And I don’t even know what to say about people criticising you for writing in English and Spanish. I mean, other than that’s fucking stupid. I’m sure your writings are very very lovely. If it's any extra help, just thinking about the idea of your silly fish poem made me smile (:
Years ago I wrote and shared a poem about me not cleaning the floor for a long while after we had to put our dog down - because, if I stood in a certain spot, tilted my head just right, the light coming through the kitchen window would hit the tiles, and I could still see imprints of his little paws that had been left behind. There were nice comments, but someone said something along the lines of “hmmmmm. you should actually mop the floors once a week at minimum. that’s gross. also your rhyme is clunky” Like oh. Okay. I know, but...that wasn't why I-- I poured my grief and love into this and you're like "here's the best floor cleaning liquid to use. kys." I shared a poem about my first *real* crush too, and there were a few comments like "this is juvenile. cringe." I remember the hurt of "oh. ow. I was being really sincere there. that feels kinda soul eroding to read. Might fling myself into the sun now, cya"
But hey, all of this to say:
Heck yeah, keep writing! Even if it's only just for you. I've personally found having a writing outlet for myself again in general great. I also like having pieces set aside that I don't start off with intending to share with anyone - that’s been super helpful too, for like, my brain in general. Whether they're personal reflections or silly thoughts, it helps to play around and get feelings out (:
Sending you kind vibes, keep on keepin' on đŸ«Ą
