deep, dark & blue

deep, dark, & blue is Isabella's second poetry collection in her series called, 'the deep'. It is the sequel to her first published poetry collection, l'ove in the deep', which she self-published in March of 2022.

She wrote deep, dark, & blue during one of her most complicated life journeys yet - during the struggles and wonders of healing through cancer, treatments, and the revisiting of her childhood traumas. She expressed that as the words and emotions came to her late most nights, they transformed. From pain to beauty, from beauty to transcendence. Now, she is so grateful to be able to share some of the most painful and yet beautiful moments of her life, in the hopes that "we can heal together".

This collection of poetry contains 105 poems, all of which are dedicated to herself (present and younger self), her loved ones, and all those who have felt deeply and darkly, and have experienced the many blues of life. She hopes this collection inspires all those who read it to feel, heal, and overcome all that has and continues to weigh them down.

"Where there is darkness, there must also be light. All my love, Bella."

*TW for loss of a loved one, childhood trauma, cancer, abuse, depression, anxiety, heavy emotions and traumatic life experiences*
