Bloom

From the radiant splendor of golden sunflowers to the passionate allure of the hibiscus, "Bloom" is the sequel to the poetic compilation "A Generation of Sunflowers."

Authored by a BPD warrior, Bloom carefully dissects the tender interplay between mental illness and healing, love and release, resilience and self-embrace.

Divided into four parts—Stigma, Sepal, Stem, and Roots —this collection seamlessly weaves together the tapestry of one's being and keeps the conversation about mental health going; no censorship, only genuine, raw emotion.

Each part and poem showcases what it feels like to live in a world where nobody gets you and walks you through finding your way toward unyielding acceptance.
You'll enter a garden of introspection, find solace in the embrace of poetic verses, and, hopefully, finally feel seen, even if it is by just yourself.

As the hibiscus flower reveals its multifaceted nature, Ally bares her soul vulnerably to give you poetry that nourishes you from your crown to your feet – no matter who you are.
