Blood Red Roses is a ππππππ memoir of becoming, an ππππππ
πππ of myself, one fragile πππππ at a time. This collection traces my journey through the πππππππ and πππππππ
years of teenagehood.
Through each poem, you would get a glimpse of πππ and ππππππππππ
moments of love, heartbreak, loss, confusion and even πππππ of πππππππ.
The title is more than just a name : it is a ππππππππ of growth and acceptance .
Each year, each experience was a petal ππππππ
πππ .
Some were ππππ like teenage innocence while others were ππππππ
, πππππππ
with blood, πππππππππ
by heartbreak and πππππππππ in reaching.
Some were glowing πππ
under the eternal ππππππππ of euphoria while others were ππππππππ
due to the π
πππππππ of insecurity and πππππ
π of pent up emotions .
But together these roses compose the bouquet of my becoming.
Now I offer this bouquet to you, dear reader, and hope you find petals of your own and embrace the garden you are meant to be.
