Return to Normality

Return to Normality is a collection of poems, reflections, and observations of the deeply sad and strikingly beautiful within the world, myself, and humanity.
An exploration of the fantastic, mythical, and painfully real, I journey through dark woods, bottles of whiskey, and the bustling streets of life.
These poems run the course of my personal grieving process along with some nostalgic thoughts of growing up.
The poems change as I changed over the years, continuing to write daily as I moved to Ireland, lost friends and family members, and adjusted to a new life.
I graduated from the University of North Carolina, I'm currently a master's student at Queen's University Belfast.
This is my first publication. - Zach Daniel
