Through this experience, I realized how hard it can be to share an art form so personal as poetry. And when I draw on specific emotions for inspiration (such as the melancholy of watching the light drain from the sky), it might be hard for people who care about me and my feelings to be able to separate inspiration from my true personal feelings. It’s hard for me to do that lol. I also realized that not everyone is going to get my poems because experiencing and absorbing art is unique to everyone. Also, I have so much room for improvement and could probably do a bit more revision when it comes to raw emotion
