Prologue
Dear Readers, Hi!
If you’ve found your way here, I’m already grateful you did.
This book is a collection of 27 independent poems. Each one exists in its own little world, carrying a feeling, a thought, or a moment that didn’t want to be forgotten. They don’t follow a single story, and they don’t need to be read in order. Take your time with them. Linger on the ones that speak to you. Skip, return, reread. Let the poems wait for you the way poetry always does.
Every piece you’ll read here is an original work, written with honesty and care. I hope you’ll treat them gently and let them remain what they are meant to be.
These poems circle around emotions many of us come here for: love and loss, healing and growth, breakups that leave marks, and the quiet process of finding yourself again. Some poems may feel like they were written for you on a day you didn’t know you needed them. Others may simply sit with you for a while. Both are enough.
Inkitt has always been a space where feelings are shared freely and words find their people. I hope this collection feels like a safe pause in your scrolling, a soft place to land, even if just for a moment.
Thank you for reading. Thank you for feeling.
With warmth,
Sanss :)
