Relentless: Pressing through the Storms of Life
Ebook
Overview
Relentless is a collection of the poems chronicling my 2020. They start rather optimistic as I attempt to start the new year well, and push to achieve some rather large overarching goals for the year. Then the pandemic hit and things in my life changed. I could no longer easily rely on the support network that had seen me through many years of my life and I was floundering. It was quite the tough transition and I began to spend a lot of time alone, a thing I had previously avoided at all costs. In those quiet hours I could no longer deny that there were things about me I was still running from. Namely a decade of sexual abuse. So, I started to process that. In the processing and growth that came out of it I lost my best friend of twenty years, as he and his wife could not abide the man I was becoming. Through it all though, I kept at my goals and achieved the bulk of them despite it all, and perhaps more impressively, I managed to not lose myself in it all.
“I am so glad that this talented poet is already publishing his
second soul-baring book! It will help a lot of people who get the
chance to read it. Nat literally thinks through poetry and it’s
quite a rare day when he doesn’t have poetry (or another piece of
art) pour out of him to the world’s benefit. Nat is the brilliantly
rare voice of the fully formed modern male, equipped with
functioning emotions and all!”
—Alina Kislenko, McMaster School of Medicine
“Nat’s poetry speaks to something deep inside of all of
us that most don’t want to admit is there. His experiences are hard
earned, and I am in great awe of his bravery to share some
extremely difficult things most spend their whole life hiding from.
If you haven’t picked up Nat’s first book, you have something
wonderful to look forward to after this dark delight.”
—Matthew Goetz, McMaster School of Medicine
