Lace of Midnight and Lightis a collection of surreal and otherworldly poetry, a journey through the veils of illusion and the vast expanse of the subconscious.

Here's to a 23 y.o. who is just trying to figure things out and see what sticks. Sometimes this will be just my thoughts from throughout the day and sometimes it will be poetry I wrote but don't want in my most recent poetry book I'm currently working on.

Hope its entertaining, inspiring, or at least boring enough to help the insomniacs sleep.

poetic thoughts

Avaz is a poetry book dedicated to love, i.e. disappointment with the fragments that love can leave us as a legacy, but it is also directed towards warm emotions towards dear people without whom one cannot live.. Thus, the author, guided by the youthful poetic arm of the male-female poetic dialogue, balances the conflict between these two opposing camps.. Her poetry is sometimes inspired by the philosophical questions of the existence of Pandora's boxes in each of us, and sometimes they are just short notes, lines, dashes caught in the passage of time around space.

An immigrant girl ponders the life she hopes she has yet to live. Ponders the family she shared no blood with. Ponders the people she'd give her blood to. Ponders the universe she's been born into.

It has been a memory since I was a child, I used feel so sad when it rain. When I'd no idea why it rained and what seasons are for or how!

Even to this day, when it rains I feel an unforgettable loneliness somewhere in my heart, as if the world is empty without people and love. But that doesn't mean I never had fun in rain.

I do, I love rain. But sometimes you never know how to hold your overwhelming feelings.
