[The cover art here is an amazing painting by Tullius Heuer. You can find more of his works here: https://tulliusheuer.com/] the word, catharsis, means 'the process of releasing, and thereby providing relief from, strong or repressed emotions'. [Yes, I copy-pasted that. hush now, little human.] Poetry, to me, is a beautiful way of expression. It says so much through so little, so many times. This collection, the last poetry collection I am publishing here, is special for that reason. I remember when I published the first collection 'Things I said to myself'. It's been an year, almost. And it's funny, I am in similar situation as I was back then. Life has started to feel like one big loop of bittersweet moments. That's what 'catharsis' has as it's contents; bittersweet moments. the state of happiness and consistent despair are no longer different ways of being for me. I co-exist with them. And so I hope that with these words going out for anyone to see, you are able to relate to it. And I am able to convince myself of the fact that I'm not alone in this fight I'm destined to lose.
today, I want to live
