How does one put together a soul
When it was formed from shards of love?
How do I let go of the fear
That has constantly comforted me
From the demons it sparks?
In her third poetry collection, Amber Campbell dissects the lifetime damage and secondhand pain caused by a loved one's addiction. From the eyes of a child to the rose-gold reflection in death, this harrowing collection delves into the complex web of alcoholism and its interwoven facets into everything that transforms our demons into humans.
Told in poetry and long prose, this collection was written for the child of an addict, for the widow, for the forgotten friend, for the one who believes they were second place. You can't lose in a competition that doesn't include a winner's circle.
