Parts of Me is a collection of poems and prose that illustrate grief, heartbreak, childhood nostalgia, and a bittersweet aloofness that comes from simple, mundane things. Diverse, profound, and even melancholic, they paint a blatant caricature of today's world and its struggles. The book is a culmination of broken dreams and shattered hopes, of stolen moments and tragic memories. A tale of passion and of courage, of mistakes made and lessons learned. The book is able to connect with teenagers, as the author herself is a teenager. Ranging from social problems to an everyday adolescent's experiences, it is a potrayal of unsaid feelings and emotions put into words. With a myriad of emotions, it brings a young adult's experiences to life. These poems speak to those with a whole world inside their heads and a mess of feelings in their hearts.
