A Matter of Perspective

This compilation of poems was written over a course of roughly ten years and aim to capture different perspectives. These perspectives are heavily influenced by different emotions. And these emotions are described using layered images and metaphorical interpretations. The collection starts with the most negative poems and gradually transitions to positive ones which is aimed to take you on a gradual journey of transition from a darkened mindset to a more elated one. The first poem sets the stage, something devastating occurs. The final poem is a continuation of the first but concludes with a positive note. These two poems, the beginning and the end, encapsulate everything in between with thoughts one might think or perceive under certain emotional stresses; eventually with lack thereof.
