Happy Halloween if it is a holiday you celebrate. My family never did, so I do not, but for the first time in my life, I've decided to get into the seasonal charm and read a few horror or thriller books, or so-called "darker" genres. I stumbled across your poems here; although they were not what I was in search of, they did take me by surprise, much like an unexpected visitor who brings along some pie or a delightful dessert. The reason I liked the poems so much, I think, is that they are not dark in a horror-movie genre sense, but dark in the sense that can resonate and be understood by those who have had past trauma and depression.
English teachers usually like poems with a happy ending, but I did not care, I was brave enough to turn in things that did not have a happy ending. I do not know quite how I managed to battle those dark thoughts, but I did. Still, some days I remain depressed. They style in which you wrote it and the content of it, I know it is written by someone with depression or some other mental hardships. Maybe I am wrong, and I much prefer to be wrong than right, but I see a pattern in it that can only be recognised by those who have gone through such pain.
