Drowning in the Rain is a poetry collection about mental health and recovery. It follows the story of a rose that cannot absorb the water falling from the sky; all it can do is drown as water continues to fall. Though water is killing it, the flower would prefer to wither away than steal what belongs to the rain.

This story encapsulates the authentic struggles of mental illness with symbolic metaphors and imagery. It explores the topic of healing, or growing above your soil. Even though the rose craves the comfort it felt while wilting, it learns how to bloom despite that—to love itself.
