Life gives us both the bloom and the bruise.Moments that feel like sunlight,and dark nights that taste of rain.Thorns and Petals is a collection of pieces from the spaces in between where love meets loss,where dreams are planted in barren soil,where we learn that even pain can teach us how to grow.These poems are about holding on when the season turns cold,about chasing the horizon even with tired feet,about believing in the bloom that comes after the thorn.For hearts that have loved, broken, healed,and still dare to dream.
