Synopsis:
Fitzgerald has a smooth voice that romances a darkness, afflicting on its blooming infancy. Battling the grievous matters in autobiographical verse, becomes archivable reflections; subsequently neighboring the efflorescence design that metamorphoses into something Beautifully Broken.
Review:
"Now take the blessed, fractured pieces, forge a life from what you have been given, what a gift it is to defeat the darkness, to be alive...albeit beautifully broken."
To start off this review, I must first admit that I have not read a large amount of poetry throughout my life. I have read classic poetry during my high school days and with my children for their school assignments. Now we all know that the prose was completely different and often times not the easiest to understand without a lot of contemplation and study.
I am learning to appreciate the beauty and richness that lies within books of poetry. To feel the emotions portrayed and connecting to meaningful understanding.
Beautifully Broken is poetry written in autobiographical form, a life unfolding on the pages. A life that is easily understood and so often resonating, it often had me in tears. I found myself going back and reading some of them over and over simply because they were just so touching and heartfelt.
There are 52 poems included and each was beautifully written, reflecting on a broken life, finding light and hope in the darkness, knowing that you are broken but most of all beautiful.
My favorites:
Moon Bathing
Breaking Cycles
Dear Empath
Silent Tears
The River
Inside the Magical Air
Love Ellipsis
The Stranger in My Bed
Letter to My heart
No Tomorrow
Extraordinary
These are poems that will be revisited from time to time.
Highly recommeneded, undeniably profound!
