I Gave Myself the World

i want all this world can give me.

Brief description: Catarine Hancock, a 25-year-old poet, author, and opera singer from Lexington, Kentucky, now living in Chicago, began writing poetry at 13 and has since built a significant online platform alongside her five poetry collections and a fantasy romance novel. When she's not singing or writing, you can find her curled up with a fantasy novel, browsing local bookstores, or adding quirky Goodwill finds to her already too-cluttered apartment.
