In the author's words, "As a 16 year old shifting schools in the eleventh grade, these poems were written over a period of two years and are a product of my experiences. This is not a mere collection of poems but rather a repository of my deepest feelings that I could not bring myself to express to the world. My writing speaks, when I cannot."
