Words Are All I Have - Paperback

by Alexandra Sisam (Author)

Words are All I Have is a compilation of feelings put into words; a way to express the intensity of the human experience and emotions. It is about what it means to be human. Drawing from the author's own internal struggles with safety and acceptance, it is an own-voices emotion-driven book, capturing sensations and feelings that are both debilitating and uplifting. It works in moments, trying to make sense of the emotions, suffering, heartbreak, and growth that characterize our lives. Touching on love, loss, uncertainty, anxiety, and vulnerability, these poems are meant for anyone who is struggling to understand their place, both on the Earth and in their own body. They are a constant reminder that you are not alone.
