The Alchemy of Words

<p>What do you do when life grants you ?everything? and yet nothing makes you happy? Are you allowed to complain when the rest of the world is plagued by disease war and abuse? Instead of feeling shame about her unease poet Mena Teijeiro believed she had a responsibility. With resources a curious brain and a burning fire within it was her duty to stop living an empty life and instead explore who she was and understand the human experience. Full of courage and a big heart Mena?s poems are vulnerable and raw. Written mostly in free verse and in the first person perspective her musings are bravely personal. The Alchemy of Words carries the essence of love and truth disappointment and loss abandonment and loneliness and joy and innocence. Mena has been gifted with the ability to alchemize tender and precious moments into vibrant words offered as whispers to our higher selves. It is time to take a journey of surrender in which we remember that in our hearts we are all pure loved and awakened to possibility.</p>
