Trauma is never something easy to deal with. Trauma can also take many forms. During my teenage years, the biggest trauma took the form of death. The loss of a very prominent figure in my life, my band teacher, who was like a second father to me, sent me into a downward spiral of depression. My salvation was my family, friends, and a creative outlet, poetry. I took the deepest and darkest thoughts that swirled around in my head and molded them into words on paper. This allowed me to eliminate the thoughts and unburden myself while creating something expressive and creative. Looking back now, I am ever so thankful for my poetry and the people around me who were encouraging of everything that would help me feel better. I hope that this collection of poems can serve as an outlet for others. Be it as a relaxing read, reflecting your own similar feelings, or inspiring you to create your own poems. I have since come to terms with my loss, but these poems will always be a part of my journey.
