Maggy Henry 

A poetry collection 

Why I write 

I am Maggy Henry, a poet who writes simply to write. I don’t believe in rules, punctuation or grammar when it comes to poetry. Everything has a meaning whether it’s hidden or a written metaphor. The beauty in poetry is that every person who reads it can connect with the words in their own way. Sometimes connecting in completely different ways than you may have intended. That’s the whole point. One moment you’re having a panic attack and the next you’ve made sense of it through writing. I could never get into journaling because the words I had to write were too head on, honest but uncomfortable. I needed a way I could express my thoughts and emotions without having to say certain words or rather explain them. 

A reason to write 

I can never write when I’m happy, there’s a loss for inspiration. My poetry explores themes of heartbreak, unrequited love, self-loathing and perspective writing. My collection of poems has something for everyone, 

My poetic themes

Human experience

Love and loss

Deep dives into the complexities of human relationships, the want of connection, and the pain of separation.

Memory's echo

Exploring the power of nostalgia, the imprints of the past, and how our upbringings shape who we are.

Perspective

Jumping into the perspective of another’s life and writing what they may not be able to say. 

Words waiting to be heard

I am actively seeking opportunities for my poetry to be published and shared with a wider audience. Explore my work and consider how my verses might resonate in your publication or collection.

"Don’t take me for a fool

I know just how you do

So talk to me

Then maybe I’ll tell ya

Next time I leave"

- M.H

“You’re sweet like the juice of a strawberry running down my chin in the summer time

I’m bitter like the berries on the tree that you’re not supposed to eat” 

- M.H

"Can’t bring myself to kiss you, so I won’t 

I’ll just sit here with the taste of salt 

- M.H
