Of Dusk and Dawn: The Beautiful Truth (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781732054912)

In her debut collection of poetry, journeying through love and loss, hope and despair, the author writes as an empath, reflecting both on her own experiencesas well as bleeding and mendingfor a world that seeks repair.

In reading and feeling the rawness of her words, we come to a discovery - it is sometimes in the strangest of times and darkest of places that healing comes - that's the beautiful truth.

"don't let them fool you -stay soft
this world
will make you think
you need to grow daggers
but the wings you try to push back
into the lapels of your coat
are the same wings
that hold the earth away
from chaos and injustice"

"before you go,
i want you to know;
i cannot love
the darkness out of you.
but i will wave this light
for as long as it takes -
until my arms grow tired
and even then.
i will rub my bones
to make fire.
i will stay bright
for you."

"i will stand by you.
but when your legs give out
beneath the weight
and you are face down
to the floor,
i won't stand by you
anymore.
i will lay by you.
my body next to yours.
i will pound my fists and tears
into the ground."
