A Universe of Tales

In her first Poetry collection Valerie Smits explores the battle with anxiety and depression, feelings of failure and hope for a better tomorrow. Relatable yet deeply intimate poems are about heartbreak, grief, falling down and getting back up, learning to cope and growing to love oneself. What the meaning of the poems is, lies with the reader. Even though some poems speak very clearly, most are open for interpretation. Find yourself in provocative yet comforting poems.
