Does the Sun Always Come Out After the Storm?

When I began to ponder what my poems represent, the term ‘chaos’ immediately sprang to mind. ‘Storm’ aptly captures the essence of my work. Yet, as I continued writing, my outlook on life evolved, and a sense of joy emerged, much like the sun following a storm. My poems transformed, resonating with happiness.This collection symbolizes a journey of growth – navigating through life’s storms and basking in the sunshine that follows. Life’s challenges, like storms, are recurrent, but so are the moments of joy and sunlight.I hope these poems inspire readers to embrace their emotions, rather than confining them to a neatly tied box. While the box may appear beautiful and controlled, it’s what’s inside that truly matters. Living authentically, acknowledging, and expressing our true feelings, is essential. It’s challenging to live, but even more so when we are not honest with ourselves about our emotions.

Natalia is a young upcoming artist, who was born in Poland but currently resides in Spain. Her poems may have a tendency of outlining big feelings through even bigger metaphors. Meeting people is a difficult task (even for the most outgoing individuals) because they even have specific characteristics that they look out for when deciding whether a new stranger will be their friend. Natalia in her poems found this friend, she found herself. Although this might sound cheesy, like the starting words of a coming-of-age movie, poetry helped her be honest with herself, which is why she believes that her new book Does the Sun Always Come Out after the Storm? will help people have their coming-of-age moment by being honest with themselves.
