I looked back at the first pieces
of writing that I ever wrote.
They were supposed to be

They were so terrible,
but they were the first things
I ever wrote.
I was pretty naïve then
and had a lot to learn.
Whether or not I have learnt anything
is a debateable point.

Soft is the petal of a rose.
Sweet is the fragrance of a flowers scent.Loud are the cries from an infant.What colours adorn these things?What beauty do I miss?The petal is soft under my touch,almost velvet in suggestion.My teardrops taste salty,as they run my cheek.Waves of fragrances sweep through the air,as their perfume surrounds me.Strange cries I hear in morning hours,awake me…
