I am a huge fan of your work on angels (I am also obsessed with angels)! My favorite book is The History of Love by Nicole Krauss, which features so much about angels and other deep things. It's just so amazing and gives me the same vibe as your poems do. It might even give you more inspiration for your poems. Think you'll read it?

thank you so much!!!  and i will absolutely give it a read! it sounds wonderful!

Hi!! I just wanted to tell you that I've just found your blog and some of your writing on Pinterest, and I absolutely fell in love with it! I've been obsessed, and I've showed all my friends how beautiful your writing is! I just wanted to let you know and encourage you to keep doing what you're doing, because your writing is none like I've ever read, and you're extremely talented. Thanks so much!

you are so wonderfully kind!!!! thank you so much for your support and overall loveliness!!!! <333

i just found your poetry and it is so inspiring and beautiful. can you tell us how youve managed to be so incredibly good at stringing words together in your poems and creating such lovely writings? my dream is to be as good as you one day

your words are so kind !!! thank you from the bottom of my heart <3 

and gosh!! i just kind of let the words flow, if that makes any sense? the words know how to land in the right spots, and i just stick them on the page! i suppose my advice is: just let the words lead you, and follow where they go! 

[qhotes]

I seriously love your falling in love with an angel text post, please please please write a book. I am begging you. And if you do let me know cause I'll be the first in line to buy it

thank you so much for the lovely words!! 

i’ve been toying around with the idea of a novel, but we’ll see where it goes.. if it actually goes anywhere, you’ll be the first to know!

Your blog on "when-you-fall-in-love-with-an-angel-you-must" is so beautiful. What made you write these words? The words touch my heart. I would love to know your thoughts. I was googling, "What to do when you're in love with an angel", and came across this.

ahh thank you so much!! i appreciate the kind words ! 

i’ve always loved the idea of angels and humans falling in love, so i tried to explore that concept. i started with the first line and from there the poem just kind of wrote itself !!!

your words cut // like fish hooks // like needles // like paper cuts // the tiny bleeding // never stops // the tiny pains // never fully // scar over // i am // raw // and red // and bleeding out // so slowly // so slowly // i can almost // convince myself // i am healing // instead // call me // your feast // call me // your harvest // you are // carving knives and shears // i am always // sliced open // i am always // nicked by the blade // a kiss // a cut // has there ever been // any difference // between them // ? //

Hello! So I know did these a looong time ago, but I stumbled across Hello! So I'd like to ask, Can I make art/ build characters from your name games?? See, my mind kinda works in visuals, and just stumbling across your work and reading the names built images in my head and relationships between names. And just LANGUAGE and WORDS are so cool and you do such a good job. Anyway back on topic, is it alright to make art of your writing?? Thank you! - Ali :)

of course! as long as i’m credited, be as creative and lovely as you’d like! thanks for asking xx

[qhotes]

hello!!

hello lovelies!! i know it's been a very long time, but i wanted to thank you all so much for your love and support over the past few months. i've been dealing with school and friendships, and haven't found much time to write, but i'm back now, hopefully with more work than before! be on the lookout for upcoming work and developments! thanks again for all the love and patience. xx, maddie

[qhotes]

hai! i am so in love with your words, and please write more about falling in and out of love with angels, it's so beautifully heartbreaking

thank you so much for the kind words! i appreciate them more than you know 💖 (and i’m so sorry for the long response time!)

[qhotes]

I really love your when falling in love with an angel poem! Do u mind if I write a fic using it? All with credit of course

of course! as long as i’m credited, feel free to use it! (and i’m so sorry for the terribly long response time!)

[qhotes]

Where did you get the ideas of your poems about angels? They are so creative and absolutely beautiful! :) Very relate-able as well...

thank you so much! to be honest, i’ve always loved angels and the mythos surrounding them, so it seemed only natural to translate it to poetry! (and i’m so sorry for the terribly long wait!)

[qhotes]

Hello there! I was just wondering if we could request? I love your writing and I just have something in mind if you wouldn't mind taking a crack at it? Hope you are well xx

of course!! i would love to take requests!thank you so much for your kind words! (and i’m so sorry for the much delayed response!)

[qhotes]

hey, idk if you still go on this blog anymore, but i just wanted to let u know that when i first started considering whether poetry was worth getting into, i read your poem "on falling in love with an angel" and i was starstruck. i got really into poetry and writing afterwards and now i write at least two hours a day, am a published poet, and am working on a poetry book of just my work as well as a novel! i found my passion, and your poem sparked the fire for it. thank you so, so much.

thank you so much!!!! this is so wonderful and beautiful to hear!!! my heart is so happy for you ♥️♥️ (and i’m so terribly sorry for the much delayed response!)

say honey // what if i told you that // the universe next door // looked prettier than a renaissance masterpiece // when the september sun hits it’s trees // just so // what if i told you that // in the universe one block over // your name is in lights and // we go to all of your premieres // draped in diamonds // would that make you smile? // would that put // a sparkle in your eye // say honey // what if i told you that // in the universe two doors down // you didn’t brake fast enough and // didn’t save your own life // hit the ground like smear-splatter // and i cried like // tears were currency // like if i just had enough // i could bring you back // and what if i told you that // in the universe one street over // something grew inside me like // a monster // and ate me from the inside out // like so many peaches // would it make you shiver // would it make you relieved // to be // right here // right now // say honey // would it make you glad // just to be
