Truth in Emotions

About the Book

Poetry is not just a form of entertainment; it is also a form of expression. Poetry can take any form, ranging from the simple to the complex. It can put images in your head, and it can even become a way of life. With poetry, it’s not just about expressing how and what you feel but about giving others the opportunity to feel how you felt, too. From a child who knows nothing except the mean kids at school to a teenager falling in love for the first time to a middle-aged adult facing the hardships of a job, poetry is for anyone and everyone. It lets you say on the page what you could never dream of saying out loud. It is a safe, comforting armor that protects as well as inspires. Truth in Emotion is a collection of varied poems, ranging in topics like friendship, love, and death. Most of these poems were written based on author Shadlynn Burch’s personal experiences while others randomly popped into her head. Shadlynn shares these poems with the hope that maybe you will find refuge in the written word as she has.
