Still Growing

For eighteen years of my life, I've had to learn a lot about the aftermath of letting unhealthy relationships with friends and lovers walk all over me. Hitting my breaking point made me finally face this anxiety I never wanted to own up to. Poetry has always been an outlet to me. There's beauty and power in small stanzas of words that grow like flowers, blooming with every word. It seems so much more raw than any medium of art I've encountered. So, I want to write a collection of poems to help my mind find comfort, and to hopefully help out those who need an outlet to feel and overcome pain that tests us in day to day life.

I want this poem book to focus on the growth of ourselves after pain fills our hearts. I want people to feel inspired to grow themselves and find that spark, consistent happiness. I want them to see a journey through pain, and to come on that journey with me. That good can come through what seems like an endless abyss.

I found the cover of this novel as a picture on Pinterest and fell in-love with a simple message that spoke so loud to me. Please enjoy and remember, you are always still growing.
