Lightning and Honey - Bog

The sophomore release of poet Xian - Lightning and Honey - focuses on the struggles and joys of being human. As the author says, "not everything is peaches and cream for everyone;" the poems explore the nuanced corners of life challenges.
Following their first poetry collection released in 2022, accomplished poet and life-long storyteller Xian brings a new collection to the table that examines the good and bad life has to offer us. From found love, to divorce, to anxiety, and more, Xian takes readers on an intricate and emotional journey through the poems in this new book.
Intended for mature readers above 16 years old, Lightning and Honey includes poems about:
● Depression
● Drug abuse
● Divorce
● Anxiety
● Physical/emotional/mental abuse
Xian doesn't create a world of doom and gloom with their heavy topic poems; instead, the art focuses on fighting your storm and braving the thunder in your own time to find the sweetness at the other side.
After reading Lighting and Honey, Xian hopes readers gain the understanding that most people need help but may go about asking for it in different ways.
Poetry fans, young adults, and readers of Amanda Lovelace will delight in the lessons and morals Lightning and Honey includes. Rooted in personal experience and dedicated to illustrating how women cultivate rich inner lives amid their daily struggles to survive, Lighting and Honey offers a raw, unfiltered look at life through the lens of a talented, inspirational poet.
