A Night With Me: Poems

Asia’s debut poetry collection, A night with me, tells a story of unconventional perseverance on the journey discovering self. It is a guide for the dreamer who is trapped, a celebration of the awkward process that growth entails, and a demonstration on unburdening yourself from the past. These poems emphasize the importance of breaking up with certain parts of self to do the hard work, and to somehow, piece ourselves back together again. This awareness is split into three parts; symbolizing evening, night and dawn.It was in their tone of voice In the billboards that don’t look like me For all my life I didn’t want to be just nothing… But still I followed its tune I danced to the rhythm It played on my blues
