The author uses poetic verse in this manuscript to write about love and heartbreak, nature, family, and overcoming obstacles in life. The collection opens with an introduction where new author Orange Crush shares that her mind, body, heart, and soul are in a period of huge transformation. "A Frayed Knot" conveys this transformation of working through life's pains and sorrows to find the strength to seize the day on her own. "Behind a Smile" tells of the hidden despair, anger, and hate that exists in unhealthy relationships. In "The Choice" the author uses nature as a symbol to show that life gives us a choice to bring life and beauty like a seed, or to manifest death like a weed. Becoming an inspiration while sparring with a few demons, this poet's work will captivate and inspire and be found appealing to all readers, as a charmingly raw wit and poetic talent is used to get up and seize the day through the good times and the bad.
