I think this poem is honest and brave and breathtaking. With lines like "We have hearts that are cracking whips across our insides" this poem is a powerhouse. Read My Lover Is The Sunlight

Next up is Prayer to Dymphna, Patron Saint of the Mentally Ill. This poem leaves me feeling raw. Lydia writes: "Don’t let my body become another ripped up doctor’s note." Come on! This poet is one to keep an eye on!
