Poems on pain, identity, and self-love

Aspen Harvey’s collection brings together subjects that often overlap in adolescence and young adulthood: self-harm, depression, anxiety, dysphoria, high school, and difficult relationships. Friendship, romance, heartbreak, and the effort to love oneself are also part of its emotional landscape. The description frames pain and love not as opposites, but as experiences that can coexist, while rejecting the idea that a person is defined by scars or wounds. The poems’ subjects place questions of identity and connection alongside the challenges of mental health.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in poetry about mental health and identity
  • Readers seeking poems addressing self-harm, dysphoria, and relationships
  • Those interested in writing about friendship, romance, heartbreak, and self-love

Book overview

Hungry Ghost is a selection of poems about self-harm, depression, anxiety, dysphoria, high school, toxic relationships, friendships, falling in love, falling out of love, and falling in love with who you are as a person, despite all the pain you feel. We aren't defined by our skin, our scars, nor our wounds. We feel intense pain, but we also feel intense love. We live drastic lives, and we live beautiful lives. The line between love and pain is blurry and transient and constantly shifting... and that's where you'll find yourself when reading Hungry Ghost.
