about

a small introduction, like lighting incense and opening a window.

hi, i’m jasmine

i’m jasmine. i’m 17. i write poetry because i feel too much. i take pictures because i don’t want to forget. i play guitar because sometimes silence is too loud.

this site is just me, trying to stay gentle with myself.


why i write

i write like it’s a kind of spellwork — not to change anything, just to understand what my heart is trying to name. i’m drawn to tenderness, devastation, longing, and the quiet kind of hope.


poetic inspirations

  • writing that feels like confession instead of performance
  • nature metaphors, moon language, and soft devastation
  • songs that read like poems
  • poems that read like diary pages
  • anything tender, raw, and a little haunted

  • red dead redemption
