A note to the reader:
This collection deals openly with sexual abuse, PTSD, suicidal ideation, homophobia, grief, and the aftermath of military service, as well as other LGBTQIA+ issues. These poems are my lived experience and are written in the context of those events. It can be quite dark at times. Be sure to check in with yourself or your support network if they evoke certain feelings within you. It is never too late for someone to listen.
If you are struggling, help is available. Call or text 988 (Veterans: press 1). Text HOME to 741741 for the Crisis Text Line.
Seek guidance in your own county for similar assistance if not within the United States.
Please read at your own pace.
