Description:

As Millennials and Generation Z, we feel unheard and unseen. We struggle to make our presence known and have fallen victim to issues surrounding finance, relationships, and situations regarding a world we sometimes view as dark. This anthology relates and creatively relays the everyday struggles that these two generations face. This anthology not only helps you to notice the issues we face in today's world. But helps us as a collective to understand what is happening and take action to make the world a better place one day at a time. These poems will turn our struggles into strengths.

*I welcome constructive criticism; before you read, please keep in mind that I am a political poet, and I am aware that my writing will get backlash in one way or another. Please try to keep that at a minimum in the comments. I support all the opinions others have, and these are my views on some of the struggles millennials go through.*

Important Note:

This piece is already copyrighted and published through Amazon KDP and is available in ebook and paperback format. It has been edited and gone through an entire process. I wanted to allow readers who haven't picked it up to get a free overall idea of my writing. This version here on Wattpad will only have 6 out of 31 poems.
