Welcome to Poetry Advent Calendar, a place you’ll get sent a poem a day in your inbox.
Door no.6 is a poem called see, hearts to be mine. This one is very close to my heart. It’s deeply layered as I couldn’t quite grasp what I was feeling and the very least how to express it in words. Expect lots of lyrical myths and legends mixed with bittersweet lemons and a girl that seems to drown.
PS: here’s a reminder that even when things come around as you expected them, it’s okay to still not feel okay with it.
