Synopsis

The Beauty Within Shadow was written between August 2019 and June 2020. These poems are concerned with the balancing of darkness and light in our everyday lives, the search for an understanding of pain and sorrow, and the processing of other thoughts we'd usually avoid by filling our days with mindless distractions.
