"My Feed," a poem about the negative effects of social media on my mental health.

Daydreaming
Daydreaming is a collection of poems that is split into 4 categories: "Coexisting with the world," "Thinking about you," "Uplifting my Blackness," and "Thoughts floating in my head." This book goes on a journey of self-reflection, exploring where you go while daydreaming. After you've read this book, the question is, are you going to stay dreaming or actually do something? By buying this book, you will be supporting a Black female author. Thank you for your support!
