Open Endings is a collection of poetry that explores the constant need and search for closure in a world where closure is just not always possible, especially in traumatic situations. It's about learning to make peace with the fragmented state of endings and to accept that being 'damaged' or feeling broken does not mean you aren't still perfectly functional; like a ruler snapped in two.

Written over the course of a year, Open Endings almost functions as a diary detailing the process and journey of coming to terms with the past, the present, and the uncertainty of the future. The collection and its poetry contain biographical and fictional elements and remain in the order of which they were written (with the exception of a few part one and two poems). The choice was also made to keep poetry that was similar to other poems in the collection, as well as poems that seem to have less explicit depth than others, due to the way it serves to reflect the cyclical nature of healing and acceptance.
