Family Lines

I wrote these poems about the relationships I've had with my close family members. Some are purely just letters of love to the people I'm closest with and explore the strengths of our bonds, while others focus more on the complexity and tougher emotions of family. I wrote the first poem in the collection first because the feelings expressed in the poem were something that I was struggling with at the moment, and the poem was a way to express these emotions. The other two poems that follow were written purely because I wanted to continue to express the complexities of family and love. My main process while writing is just to put pen to paper and see where it takes me.

Creativity is how I express my emotions. Whenever I'm struggling with something I write about it, and it helps me process it.
