Woah! This is SUCH a good start to a book! Can't believe I only just found this while digging through YWP's writing section (I just joined this community.) I hope you've continued to write this over the past few years, because it's beautiful!
I love your imagery: how you build the scene with every letter of your name, spelling your life out for us. That last line is stunning-- connecting to me and many many others-- beautiful, as if you are reaching out in that final moment, out of the bustling crowd and into yourself.
I am speechless. Those last three lines have rendered me blind with pain and anger, yet I'd now like to go out and become a conservationist. Thank you for writing this inspirational and beautiful poem.
I love this collage so much. It captures your personality and I love the photography, it's amazing. :)

This feels like something I feel a lot too.
Thanks!
Not exactly secret: it was literally the acrostic part of the acrostic. Also it was bolded.
