Deep in the process of churning out the first 20K words of a new novel after listening to TTPD, I feel this, Soman, so deeply. Thank you for giving voice to my thoughts exactly. That being said, I have listened to the album twice. Just for the poetry. And Fortnite is stuck in my head these days, hard. I’m grateful for her. Grateful for you. Grateful for every artist who tries, even when the final product may not be the leanest, best version of the story. At least it exists.

I really admire Taylor as an artist and a writer for saying the things that of lot of artist may not have the courage to say. In my opinion, there are very few artist who have been as vulnerable with their music, expressing how she felt insane in this relationship with Joe in who's afraid of little old me and the extreme amount of pressure and mental strain she experienced and still is experiencing with I can do it with a broken heart. Like others have said, I am grateful for artists like you and Taylor who can be so vulnerable and honest with there art. That's what makes her a success, her honesty. Other celebrities who may feel this way would never express how they feel like there are breaking and feel that they are going insane. The title also is perfection. I'm glad she finally recognized that she is a true poet. My favorite songs are who's afraid of little old me and I can do it with a broken heart, what are yours?
