Roses and Thorns: 100 Poems for Life

Angelina Scriptor began writing poetry when she was only a child, but one fateful day, she decided to look back. It was only then that she realized she had something that most poetry books lacked. While still only a teenager, Angelina noticed that life encompasses more than the simple routes of love and loss that other poets tend to focus on. Life holds both hidden beauties and traumatizing horrors, tucked intricately within its own pages, jumbled amongst themselves to further hide the signs of their existence.

Life is telling a story, day in and day out. Slowly, it builds and breaks each of its characters, leaving them to individually collect the pieces of the puzzle that they constantly yearn to complete. And, in the meantime, they are left to create their own stories, whether they do so while coming together with others, or if they’re left to trudge down the dark path of life alone, barely making it to their next sentence.

If you choose to read this book of poems, you will be met with many stories that Scriptor experienced over the years, whether they be her own, or those she uncovered while peering down the path of another.

This book holds not only the beautiful rosebuds of life’s growth, but also its sharp, threatening thorns. Every page is left to fulfill another journey, never relying on that of another to do so. Sometimes, words sit seemingly simple, but more times than not, its vines will burrow deep into the root of life, tugging at its very existence.

That is for each reader to determine for themselves, may they decide to seek the answer.
