Beschreibung

Every midnight,
our soul wanders around the world-
keeping us half awake.

It swims in the ocean,
searching for that one stone
thrown many years ago.

That stone left a scar and a question,
"What I ever did to deserve this?"

FOREWORD

I believe there’s nothing more beautiful than meeting people who have the same likes and interests as you. There’s nothing more beautiful than encountering someone who actually understands the way you feel. For some, it could be family, a friend, a pet, a favorite artist or it could also be Marie Yuzon and her poetry.

As someone who also writes, I am very much aware of the fact that to be an effective writer, one must feel empathy towards the people around. That’s what I saw in Marie from the first time she shared how and why she was able to write poems. She could understand other people’s suffering and pain and knows how to turn it into something beautiful through her own words. That is why when you read her works, you would somehow feel connected.

While many of us are very afraid of showing our wounded selves, afraid to speak about the things we long bottled up, “Midnight Scars” projects vulnerability. Once in a while, you may find yourself in the same situation, or you may see yourself standing on that very same ground.

The book is an invitation for the lost souls, with the hope that you may finally find peace and comfort through shared experiences of heartbreak, confusion and wandering in this chaotic world we live in. It will teach the readers that there’s nothing wrong to take the risks. It will give encouragement for you to be strong even if it means standing by yourself alone. The book will tell you that it’s totally fine to be unwell because eventually, things will get better. Maybe not now, but one day.

As how Marie openly showed us her “Midnight Scars”, I hope someday, you will too.
