We Die Young. Don't We? For all the different reasons and through all the different ways. We Die Young is a diary written across different stages of life, from a pre-teen learning how to think, to a young adult learning how to survive those thoughts. These poems trace inner narratives as they evolve from TED-talk optimism to quiet yells for help. The meticulously chosen poems capture every essence of growing up and how our thoughts progress as we proceed through life. As you read, you won't just be reading poetry. You'll be stepping into the inner worlds of different ages, each one trying to make sense of life.
