A LOOK INSIDE ELIZABETH COMPTON'S POETRY
INTRO:
during my short twenty three years in this reality, four main issues have reigned supreme: love, being in control, dealing with depression, and others not being able to comprehend me. my goal within my writing is to aid others. if i can leave earth with one less person feeling alone...well, i can then comfortably say that i have accomplished my life goal.

i. a transitory fondness is all i have yet to accomplish
living under a hex of my own has been quite the dull creation
- will i ever know what it means to experience a soul connection
ii. to be perceived as frail is a sizable fear of mine
it pains me to admit that i am not on my own team
- independent to a fault
iii. melancholy was leaked into my veins before i was able to speak
by design adaptation has been the only constant in my world
- i must reveal the campaign for my well-being has yet to conclude
iiii. it is awkwardly apparent that i am unaware how to project myself to the outside
world
my intentions are pure but are often misinterpreted
- how bizarre is it that you are the only person you will entirely know
