Still Growing

Still Growing is the journey of growing up. It is sailing towards the horizon in search of the unknown, looking for the dreams kept just over the horizon. Sometimes on the road to growth, you stumble - you can feel alone, not good enough, and sometimes you feel as though you are learning to fly on the fall down, but you learn to weather the bad days, take the fears in stride and continue on. Eventually, you will pick up your pieces and tie them together, stronger than before, as you grow and as you become the incredible person you are meant to be. It's not an easy path, but if you have the courage to try again each time you fail, then you will reach the stars and beyond.

Still Growing is the story of self-love, of becoming, of persisting in this ocean of a world, of knowing that even in the dark, you are not alone-you will always, always have yourself, and that is truly amazing. So laugh through the bad days and smile through the good ones, and know that growing is a journey, so hold your head up high, and it will all be fine.

Wren is just an ordinary teenage girl from a little town in the corner of nowhere. She is inspired by the grief and the pain of living as well as the beauty of the journey. She hopes that others may read her words and feel a little less alone in the process that is growing up. She believes that tomorrow is another chance to try again and that no matter how hard it gets, you must keep going because, eventually, the sun will rise. Still Growing is her first collection of poetry. Follow her on Instagram @poetwren or visit her website www.poetwren.com
