When did you first start making art, and what inspired you to do it? According to my parents, I created my first drawing when I was 3 and have continued nonstop.

If you wanted to write a poem about me
Write it if you want and make it nice.
Write about the blue days of winter

Write about everlasting happiness
Write about undying love
Write about will that can't be broken
Send me an angel to love and protect me
Because my wings are like autumnal leaves,
I cannot wrap them around my body for warmth
