Hello and welcome back even though I'm talking to no one (or maybe it's just past me).
Either way, it's been a few years since I could draw up the inspiration to put the right words to my thoughts, but here we are again.
The little girl that started this blog (back in 2014?!) wanted a space to play with words as she was first discovering their magic. She tossed her messy thoughts out onto the page in hopes that the right metaphors would bring clarity to ideas and dreams she had yet to dissect. After all, growing up is learning to express yourself: your thoughts, identity, and feelings. Poetry was a playground for me to explore the emotions I was just learning to process and understand.
At the time, the path in front of me was still hazy, plenty of roads to take and plenty of side quests to conquer. To someone who was still just discovering the intellectual side of herself, life had an ethereal quality to it. And that was reflected in what I wrote. Poetry and prose that was whimsical and fantastic, creativity fueled by youth and wonder.
Somewhere along the way, disillusions and evolution changed the way I see the world around me. It feels like a veil that has faded over the years, taking the inspirations I had with it (hm here's a thought on this).
So yeah, it's been a while since I could figure out how to feel that again. But, I'm in a good place to revisit my creative writing and pull those skills out of whatever dusty chest they've been sitting in. So again, welcome back, and I hope you enjoy the words I have to offer you :))
Much love,
Annabelle

Sit back, grab some snacks, maybe some lemonade, and take it easy for a little. You can go back to reality whenever you want, but for now, know that you're in a safe space.
This is a blog I started some time ago as an experimental brain dump. It was a place to let myself loose and just go. Write. Rant. Throw out pieces of my tangled thoughts out into the world in the hopes that someone could recognize something and laugh a little. Or cry. I don't mind.
Everything here has been what has sprung up intermittently in my head, whether it's just a quick thought or something more substantial. I hope you have fun going through this page and I hope it provides some relief from whatever else you have going on.
I'll leave you to it now. Happy reading!
