The afterthoughts discuss why the piece was written or addresses the topic of the poem. The work ranges from 2011 to 2019. The author decided to include the dates of each piece so that readers could possibly see her personal growth over the years. She didn't put the poems in chronological order because she wanted readers to experience her life as she did and that is: things not always being in order on solid grounds - sometimes chaotic and unpredictable.
