L. V., I Found This Poem Flying Too Close To The Sun

Why do bad things happen to good people?

Detail of "Children on a Dune"
by: Ferdinand du Puigaudeau (c. 1890)

Doing bad things doesn’t necessarily make us bad people, right?

to start showing up in the children’s nightmares?

Feedback for your writing project (sorry this took so long)

I'm not good at writing or giving reviews that's why I'm sending this anonymously but your words are always beautiful and heartwrenching. I think it's generous of you to take the time to listen to other people's stories and write them a poem. This includes people like me who don't write but have a lot on my mind and sometimes I want a poem that I can relate to haha

Thank you and just keep writing. And no criticism from me on the technical level because like I said I'm not a writer. I hope this feedback is okay!

No, this is perfect! Thank you so much. I love listening to people's stories and writing them something based on those experiences. I just get worried sometimes that I might not have been able to capture what they wanted, or do their story justice, as some stories people have sent me, I haven't gone through personally, so I'm glad to hear this. Again, thank you <3

There was a boy whose name changes every day.
What never changes every day is that he’s always sad.

- film still from A Very Long Engagement (2004)
- "He likes visiting cemeteries.
The prologue is set at a funeral and the following chapters
are about him dealing with loss." -L. V.

I think I wanted him to have a happy ending but I never wrote it.
Maybe I’ll finish his story one day.

L. V., maybe some people are meant to be sad for a lifetime

In the paintings, you are the onlooker. The passerby. The blurred figure in the corner that’s almost concealed beneath the shadow cast by the ornate gold frame. Centuries later, art students pore over this shadowy figure, trying to give meaning to it. Like what does this represent to the painter? What symbolism does this shred of darkness holds? Of course they do this right after analysing the colours and the light. They do this after they have gotten bored and tired of analysing the hands of the main figure around which the landscape was created. Because none of this vibrant world would have been created without the muse. But there will come a time to look at the shadows, and wonder why they’re there. Why are you here?
- L. V.

L. V., i found this poem left forgotten by a stranger at the local café
