A Canvas of Stars

Leaving your childhood faith can be a harrowing journey that brings freedom, but also pain. This short book of poetry tells the story of a young woman who realized she was bisexual, and began to question all she knew. Told in four chapters, using the language of myth and fantastical metaphor, it paints an intimate picture of her evolution from innocence and suppression, to horror and liberation, to trauma and loneliness, and finally, to healing and purpose.

I call for help, but I don't get replies. That's another insecurity, I don't think I have any fans. My blog is becoming dead and I keep thinking of deactivating my twitter.
