In Haley Ann Ward's debut poetry collection, silent storms, she exposes the uncharted depths of mental illness, the real-life impacts it has on various relationships (e.g., friends, family, significant others), and closes with the ongoing process of becoming, seeing the world from a new perspective-above water instead of sinking in it.The poems are split into three chapters:"storms" dives into the realities of living with clinical depression, loneliness, anxiety, an eating disorder, and touches on trauma."ships" steps into the tumultuous sea of relationships, and the hopeless struggle of finding safety and grounding within them."saltwater" explores the process of nonlinear healing and self-discovery.Some of the poets who have inspired Haley are Rupi Kaur, Levi the Poet, and Chris Bernstorf.
