Poetry, prose poetry, chapbook, 24 pages, from Bottlecap Features.

Each poem in this collection is titled after a shade of blue, the idea originating from a Maggie Rogers lyric - these poems are encapsulating my idea of sweet sadness. Finding comfort in the moon and the words of those who came before me, seek into my soul in Honey Shades of Blue.

This is a collection of coming-of-age poetry. Here you may find the intricacies of girlhood and the hopeful lifestyle of growing into a terrifying young woman. “My dull pulse pulsates as I pack away my postcards and a book, a letter from a friend on my birthday last year and a teddy bear with a sweater reading BOSTON.” There is no theme, but one of hope. A new life ahead and holding the door on the way out.

Honey Shades of Blue is a book of poetry by Emelia Cyr. Growing up in the cold North of New England you learn to make friends with the poets, and try to become one. These are words of a recent high school graduate, now studying creative writing at a small liberal arts college in the mountains of Maine. Pondering acceptance, loneliness, rage, and above all; love.
