Orpheus was a bird

Galilea (she/they) | 23 Like wildfire and tempest lodged in my veins.

I really liked your poem 🔥

This is so beautiful! Thank you so much!

[orpheuswasabird]

I guess I only write poems after panic attacks...  I don’t like that sad things are beautiful and yet my habits are hurricanes.

just before midnight thoughts...

I haven’t posted in a while because stress and school but yeah

[orpheuswasabird]

I still love reading your poems and remembering why I love poetry, thank you for all of the words you have shared

Thank you so much! I've been super busy with school and life so I haven't had the chance to write a lot recently. But hopefully I'll find more time in the coming year! <3

Relatable or just sad?

slowly trying to remember how to write poems...

a weird metaphor written during an anxiety attack i guess

A kinda strange metaphor... but happy pride 🌈

Another poem from last year that I never posted and finally got around to editing.

The birds deliver messages, you just have to sit still long enough to listen. ~~~ Sorry I’m terrible at posting; I wrote this the other day.

Hi! It’s been a while. I’ve been meaning to post some poems again. It’s funny how life always seems to get in the way of itself.

I’m going to start posting some poems that I wrote during my poetry challenge but posted another. I hope you enjoy!

[orpheuswasabird]

congratulations on doing A WHOLE YEAR OF POEMS OMG??!!! and they were all so wonderful too! ngl, im definitely going to miss seeing your writing so often, but please enjoy your well-deserved break!!

Thank you so much!! I’m so glad you have enjoyed them and stuck with me for so long! I might end up doing something similar in the future, like writing poetry every day for a month or a poem a few times a week.

[orpheuswasabird]

Will you still be posting your poetry to here?

Yes! I’ll still be posting poetry here and on my Instagram just not as often as I have been. I also have some more poems from this year (days where I wrote more than one poem) that I might post at some point too.

[orpheuswasabird]

And there it is. 365.24 days of poetry. This has been an amazing experience for me. I might do something similar in the future. But right now, I need a break. Love you all. Congrats on making another trip around the sun.

Well, we’re nearing the end. Thank you to everyone who has read even one of the poems I’ve written this year. I’ll be posting the last poem around midnight.
