The Pause

This collection of poems takes us through life experiences to which we can all relate. The themes of unrequited love, heartache after heartbreak, experiencing loss, getting caught in the rat race, facing the struggle of keeping up with the pace of a heavy workload, dealing with issues of racism, addiction, and discrimination. It also explores feelings concerning the impact of the recent COVID-19 Pandemic which increased many of our feelings of isolation, desperation, and has caught us off guard while trying to come to terms with the unknowns. There are other themes of police brutality as referenced in the George Floyd Incident and as captured in "Let's be clear."

Throughout all this, one still has hope for the future, and that one's children will be able to cope as they try to navigate life and its day-to-day challenges.
