    About this ebook

    You could think of a thousand different ways to define Poetry, but the first that may come to mind is that of your very soul transcending your chest in flames, eager to be either written down on a piece of paper, or gently whispered to someone's ear.

    If the heart could speak, Poetry would be its voice.
    To quiet it down would be to stop breathing.

      Love Letters

      Mar 7, 2022

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.
