LATE OCTOBER

Author’s Note:

I began writing out of necessity. It was in a time when I thought that I would take my own life before my 15th birthday. Thankfully, I found something to be passionate about; I found poetry, and I started to write Late October when I was 14 years old, and along the way I found myself. And now, at 16, I am a published poet!

To me, Late October is more than a nostalgic collection of poetry, it is (quite literally) the essence of my adolescence… The pure and youthful paradigm that I saw my life according before, during, and after my heart was ever broken.
