This book of poems is my reflection of raw emotions from growing up and encountering many abusive relationships. I have faced many hard times and situations, which is where writing came in. Writing was my way of escaping reality and allowing space for my emotions. I was not allowed to talk to anyone about feelings growing up, so this was my only outlet. I grew through my pain, and I’m only hoping that I can help someone do the same.
