My journey with poetry began in high-school,
I fell in love with a girl, but things didn't go too well.
I was naive but my feelings were true,
It was this girl, that ignited the poet in me, for sure.
The pain, the sorrow, made me write,
Then A-levels came, and physics took flight.
It was my dream to be a physicist,
Showing my inventions to the world.
But that dream was broken,
And I tried to remove myself from thy world.
Two attempts were made,
Yet, somehow I was saved.
I guess the Almighty kept me alive.
So, I thought let's make a mark with this life.
With the pain and suffering as my fuel,
I began to write my poems.
Each passing day, I got better and better,
And finally decided to share some poems.
