Hey. If you read this and know some of my other poems, you know that I'm quite a fan of writing about some deeply personal and experienced situations through poetry. Poetry to me is an escape from the reality of my ultimately challenging life. When I started to think about how I used to walk with some of my old friends down the streets in my old town at night, I grabbed my poetry book and envisioned a teenage girl who had struggled with feeling like nobody had ever understood the depth of her pain. This was quite an act of vulnerability which I had felt at moments.  

Originally, My plan was to include her background story behind all of her life, shortly, to give my readers more of an emotional and intellectual connection, but I mostly based the poem on her Physical Pains. Many people could look at this poem and see a completely opposite version of what I originally wrote about.
