I started writing a poem called “The Dark Forest” about two years ago. Since then, I kept editing it, reworking, trying to turn it into a video but it always felt a little off. Too abstract and too specific at the same time.
The poem is about my view on camaraderie and friendship, how situations shape people, and how people shape situations. It’s about going through hard times with friends, and also enjoying the sunshine with those same friends.
This week, I finally decided to release it. Not because it’s perfect, or because I found the “right balance,” but because I realized I was chasing something that will always remain imperfect. Maybe that imperfection adds another layer to it, you will be the judge of this.
In a few days, it will be out on my YouTube channel and Spotify.
