There are pieces of me

I know you wouldn't like

if you saw them

in the daylight.

This line from a poem in Mason Borth's first book, Holding the World Inside, captured my heart.

Mason is a eighteen-year-old new poet. Her book is more than a collection of teenage poems. She writes her intense emotional poetry with the passion of a fierce soul. 

It is a powerful look into the personal creations of a young woman unhesitatingly sharing herself in the form of poetry.
