I am just a person trying to find their place in society. For anyone who feels the same or can make sense of any page in this book and call it beautiful; or maybe you are just a hopeless romantic like me. Someone that sees the world in a different light. Then this one goes out to you.
My story may be devastating and dire, but my story is not a tragedy. These pages are my truth and I am unapologetic.

Over the course of 2022, a select group of young writers was invited to take part in a year-long writing program at Story Factory. Their goal was to produce a collection of poetry. This is one of the collections produced in these workshops.
Year of Poetry 2022 was supported by the Copyright Agency’s Cultural Fund and Parramatta Leagues Club.
