These poems were peeled off of rainy sidewalks, scraped from basement walls, and wrenched free from behind your heart valves. This assembly of painfully honest confessions bear witness to the inner world of a sensitive young woman trying to keep her head above water. It leaves one as if they were drowning in her emotions along with her, at the same time holding up a mirror to the reader and asking if they don't need a life boat, too? ''Why do I write? Another fantastic question. And I have the answer loaded like a bullet, am I not just the smartest girl you've met? When no one listens the words have to go somewhere. Its simple physics. Energy. I've given up on my tongue a long time ago. The only thing I need now is a reader.'' This collection transcends the written word and flows seamlessly in and out of both forms of art with stunning work from the author's dear friends Svetla Protitch and Sophia Borrisova.
