The In Between Years

The In between years is a poetry collection about heartbreak that shook you awake, and the complicated years of growing up while trying to understand yourself. These poems trace the highs and lows of adolescence - the late-night thoughts, the first real love, the first real loss.Inside these pages are the truths we learn only by living them: how love can feel like home until it doesn't, how heartbreak can hurt but also teach, how growing up means letting go of who we were to become who we're meant to be.

For those figuring life out, piece by piece, poem by poem.Within These Pages: - Free-verse poems centered on love, heartbreak, adolescence, and self-rediscovery - Honest, raw tone - emotional without being overly soft or dramatic - An easy, reflective read meant to be underlined, revisited, and felt
