Before I Knew Better: (and other poems of Becoming) - Paperback
Description
by Samantha Jo Pfisterer (Author)
These pages are the unedited voices of who I was: the dreamer, the romantic, the girl who wanted to be.
She wrote of love before she'd ever held it. She wrote of heartbreak before it truly found her.
These poems are my proof of becoming, the raw blueprint of the woman I would rise into.
This is my origin story: the before, the learning, the growing.
