Thanks so much for the kind words! You've touched on something really interesting. Why do I yearn to write poems? That's a question that's both simple and complex, you know?

On one level, yeah, poetry is definitely a vent for emotions that are hard to express in everyday conversation. It's like taking all those swirling thoughts, dreams, hopes, and fears and giving them a shape, a form, a voice. Sometimes things are just too big or too intricate to say outright, and poetry lets me wrap them in metaphor and emotion so they can be felt, if not directly understood.

But it's also more than that. It's like trying to capture a moment, a feeling, or even a person who's just out of reach—like trying to bottle a wisp of smoke or a beam of light. It's a way to explore the 'what-ifs' and the 'could-bes,' you know? It's not just about venting; it's also about dreaming.

So yeah, every line I write is like a little piece of my soul that I'm putting out into the world, hoping it resonates with someone else's. It's both a release and a reach, if that makes any sense.
