Poems from The Little Prince
I started writing poetry when I was around 16 or so, and have been writing ever since. I'm presently in college majoring in Psychology so I can eventually become a psychologist (after much grad school). In terms of personality I am an INFP, if one is using the MBTI, and I have a melancholic temperament, which, combined with my unbeatable sense of idealism, makes for an interesting combination. My poetry is often very idealistic, and I usually enjoy using rhythm and rhyme while allowing the poem's meaning to be fairly accessible, and yet deep enough that multiple readings could bring out more flavor from the text. Hope you enjoy, and feel free to tell me if you find anything wrong/right with what I've written, I appreciate any constructive criticism and critical praise. Thanks!

We'll dash hand in hand as we make our own path
Through the lillies and jasmine we'll...
I died as Autumn burned out bright
With phoenix shades of orange light,
As leaves cascaded from the trees
Brought down by a cold,...
