A Trifecta of a Recent Past is a collection of poems based on recent past events and thoughts that have occurred in my life. It follows my journey with depression and my thoughts on friendship, as well as my thanks to those who I consider a reason for why I keep on living. As another important note there is a Trigger Warning as there are mentions of suicide. Aside from that important message, the three poems are as follows: ”Metamorphosisism”, ”Amicitia”, and ”Tribute To”. ”Metamorphosisism” is about my experience with depression, from its onset to the point I got help. ”Amicitia” is a poem on the concept of Amicitia or friendship and my personal feelings on it. The last poem, ”Tribute To”, is about thanking my friends and family for helping me bolster my cause to live, in addition to thanking the person who helped me get proper help.

Creativity means being able to make something that I find meaning in. When I write poetry or opinion essays I am giving myself leeway to interpret or record my feelings in a manner that makes sense to me, thus giving it meaning to me.
