“Here is the razor sharp voice of the terrified pregnant teenager in America.
A voice nobody wants to acknowledge. A voice that is not supposed to be.

 

These are poems that have snuck out from the dark side of the moon belly of a young girl to find the enormous love of motherhood. A poetry from a silenced corner, a hidden world. The courageous and unbridled words that do not shy away from terror, alienation, & guilt.

 

Read these poems at your own risk. They will change the way you look at pregnancy forever.”

–Elizabeth Cohen, author of Bird Light

    Touched me to the core. I went through the same thing at 16 and our parents actually know each other… How emotions are the same. So well written Chelsey.
