The nectar is sweeter

the nectar is sweeter is a collection of poems about becoming. Through reflections on girlhood, womanhood, love, grief, family, feminism, and self-discovery, these poems explore what it means to remain soft in a world that often asks us to harden. Like a flower reaching toward the sun, each section follows a different stage of growth—roots buried beneath the surface, seasons of weather that shape us, the courage it takes to bloom, and the sweetness that follows. The experiences that break our hearts, challenge our beliefs, and teach us how to survive are often the same experiences that enlighten us to grow. These poems are not about healing perfectly. They are about becoming. They are about learning that life does not necessarily get easier with age, but it does become richer. Meer lezen Snelle levering vanuit Nederland.
