This is really captivating! The similes and metaphors you use feel very original, and the line lengths make me feel the tension your poem describes. I have a really clear image in my head of two people, lying in bed, facing away from each other surrounded by silence.
The Kingdom Of Back - My favorite book of hers that I’ve read so far. (Mozart and a fantasy world?). It reminded me of the world in The Cruel Prince by Holly Black.
I haven’t read Warcross (and Wildcard—also Stars And Smoke and Icons and Infernos) yet, but it is one of my most anticipated books of 2026!
The Young Elites (The Rose Society, and The Midnight Star) - A fantasy trilogy that I actually cried while finishing. It has some insanely complex and flawed characters (with great character arcs :)). Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo and This Dark Descent by Kalyn Josephson are somewhat similar to this.
Skyhunter (and Steelstriker) - This is a dystopian sci-fi/fantasy duology. It was intense. I’m not sure what else to say.
i understand it as a sort of familial love, where it goes beyond enjoying their presence and rather loving them because of the comfort they bring. i dunno if that made sense js how it felt to me
Ooh I like that one it makes no sense :D
How do you get out of a concrete room with no doors, no windows, a table and a mirror?

I made this joke a while ago:
What do you call a cow that's sorry for its actions?
Utterly ashamed.
I'M SORRY IT'S SO PAINFUL-

Oh my gosh I’ve been thinking about making a post about Marie Lu’s books for a while! I’ll look into those

This is incredible. I love your poetry so, so much, and this seems to embody every snippet of it
