In the intricate verses of embers, you will find an all-too-familiar tapestry of emotions woven together over the past three years. These twenty-seven poems unveil the hues of despair, the strength in vulnerability and the relentless resilience of the human spirit. Each poem whispers a unique story; fragments of a heart learning to heal, an ode to a little ballerina, and scenes from a beautifully tragic movie. Embers unearths the complexities of mental health to provide solace and inspiration to those seeking to express the inexpressible. With these symphonies of raw emotions, we step into a world where the skies are grey but the rhythm of the rivers calms us, where night turns day but even shadows become monsters, where even though the storm batters down, embers prevail.
