by Larenze Jordan RiosPublish: Apr 14, 2026 Series: MultiformTeen & Young Adult PoetryBook Overview
"This is not a story of being fixed, but of learning how to live, feel, and return to myself in the middle of everything."Verses with Larenze: 5th Edition is an immersive and deeply introspective journey through the mind, heart, and spirit, where healing is not presented as perfection, but as presence. Through poetic reflections and cinematic fragments, the reader is guided through moments of stillness, intensity, questioning, and quiet realization. Each piece captures the raw experience of navigating inner noise, emotional weight, and the search for peace—offering a space where thoughts are felt, not just understood.
Within these pages are lived experiences with schizophrenia, where perception bends, deepens, and reveals meaning in ways both challenging and profound.
Blending vulnerability with awareness, this collection explores what it means to exist fully within oneself while moving through uncertainty, growth, and transformation. It is a body of work that does not seek to define or resolve, but to accompany—inviting readers to reflect, feel, and recognize parts of their own journey within its pages. At its core, this book is a reminder that even in the most complex moments, there is something steady within us waiting to be found.
