Holding the World Inside

There are pieces of me
I know you wouldn't like
if you saw them
in the daylight.
This line from a poem in Mason Borth's first book, Holding the World Inside, captured my heart.
Mason is a eighteen-year-old new poet. Her book is more than a collection of teenage poems. She writes her intense emotional poetry with the passion of a fierce soul.
It is a powerful look into the personal creations of a young woman unhesitatingly
sharing herself in the form of poetry.
