Through the Eyes of Adolescence - Paperback

by Dmario Gerald (Author)

What do you do with the feelings you never had words for?

Through the Eyes of Adolescence follows the emotional journey from childhood into adulthood. Through joy, pain, confusion, loss, and hope, these poems give voice to what so many people carry but never learned to say.

It begins in childhood, where feelings run deep but go unnamed. It moves into adolescence and young adulthood, where those feelings take shape as questions: identity, belonging, loneliness, heartbreak, purpose, and the quiet weight of depression that arrives as the world gets heavier.

But this collection does not stay in the sorrow. It turns toward perspective. It asks the reader to slow down, to sit in the present, to find beauty in the ordinary moments that usually pass unnoticed. Not the life the rat race sells you. The life you already have.

Whether you are remembering the child you once were, still learning how to grow up, or trying to appreciate where you stand today, these poems are a reminder: growth was never about having all the answers. It is about learning to live fully through every season.
