This book is centered on mental health and its various facets-such as depression, insomnia, and anxiety-delve deep into the human condition. It's an intimate portrayal of the struggles, triumphs, and complexities that accompany these experiences. Such a book is not just a collection of poems; it's a narrative woven from the threads of emotions, offering insights into the labyrinthine landscapes of the mind.
Each poem is a brushstroke, painting a vivid picture of what it feels like to grapple with these internal battles. Some verses may echo the hollow ache of depression, while others may dance with the restless rhythms of insomnia. Anxiety might manifest in verses that palpitate with uncertainty and fear, creating a mosaic of emotions that readers can empathize with and relate to.
This book isn't just about pain; it's about resilience, hope, and the human capacity to navigate through the darkest of moments. It invites readers to confront the uncomfortable, to sit with the unease, and to find solace in the shared experiences depicted within its pages. It's an insight into the raw, unfiltered human experience-beautifully chaotic, yet inherently resilient.
Ultimately, it's a testament to the power of words and art to shine a light on the often obscured corners of our minds, fostering empathy, understanding, and a sense of connection among those who traverse similar emotional landscapes.
Hurt and frightened and no where to turn except for my journal.
Curse words being streamed at me and you would have thought I had a father for a sailor. ~E.M.C
Many poems focusing on the subject of Mental Illness, that many suffer with and the subject just isn't brought up enough. Poems focusing on a day in the shoes of a person with a mental illness and how some even ordinary simple tasks may seem not so simple to them.
There may be some uplifting poems but also raw ones filled with real emotions, things I've experienced.
