writers introduction

hello 👋 my name is love.

my pronouns are they/she, and i'm a queer writer in my early twenties from brisbane, australia.

i write primarily short poems that dabble with topics of love, relationships, grief, trauma, mental health, chronic illness, the seasons, or anything i'm feeling in particular in that passage of time. i try to write and post my best pieces as regularly as i can.

writing has always been an important aspect of my identity. i have found that in all the different stages of my life, in all the things that flow in and out and all the things i've lost, writing has been what i have been loyal to. it is the place where i feel most honest, open, safely vulnerable, and most importantly it is where i feel most creative. i have a lot of favourite authors that inspire me to write but ultimately i write for myself.

i hope that anyone who comes across my content, finds that the words speak to them and represent their feelings in a way that they've been searching for. for me; a great piece of writing is a piece that allows something that was once incommunicable to be communicated.

i do not have any published books, yet. but this is an ambition of mine. everything i share here on tumblr is my original work, if you would like to share it somewhere else please make sure it includes credit.

you can also follow me on instagram @loosethorns

please feel free to follow and interact and share what most speaks to you. it means the world that my poetry touches even just one heart.

i look forward to writing you all love letters. 🤍

“Of this there can be no question—creative work requires a loyalty as complete as the loyalty of water to the force of gravity. A person trudging through the wilderness of creation who does not know this—who does not swallow this—is lost.” - Mary Oliver
