"the pink house" is a collection of poems that attempt to articulate the feelings of grievance over childhood and tell a story of my adjustment to adulthood, breaking out of the mental cage that is nostalgia, and coming to terms with the death of what i used to know. old friendships are revisited, past loves are confronted, memories of what once was are reminisced, and, of course, light is shone on mental illness. ***story is currently in active editing and new content will be posted in real time.***
