This poem forms part of my Aftermath collection, poetry written after meeting Jenn, where love, reflection, and emotional clarity began to replace chaos.

Barely a month after I met Jenn, something changed within me. She inspired me in ways I never knew possible.
She evoked so many emotions and feelings... so much love and happiness and just endless positivity. She changed my life and continues to change it. Love is just so, so powerful!
Six years ago, when I first posted this on Instagram, I was at the beginning of a path I didn’t know I needed but one that changed everything once I stepped onto it.
Carving a Canyon was written during that moment. When love doesn’t just appear, it reshapes you.
Love is just so powerful. Let those paths be carved. You never know. They might just be the one.
