You do not survive the dark by pretending it isn't there, you survive by learning it's geography. Spanning a tender exploration of the terrain between broken innocence and the regrowth of self, this collection maps what it takes to step out of the shadows, and decide to remain. These verses speak directly to what we tend to hide: the lingering ghosts of childhood, the weight of unsaid goodbyes, and the exhausting burdens of holding yourself together.
