    About this ebook

    I came to my own rescue
    And inked my emotions.
    Penning my feelings
    Is like playing music
    In wavelengths,
    Connected with notes,
    Creating a melody,
    Staying in tune with my soul.

    From time to time, we all experience difficulties that seem to consume our lives. Yet at some point, our struggles can become a source of strength that motivates us to move forward.

    In a debut collection of poetry, Stephanie Chakiryan reflects on her real-life experiences and the many mountains she has climbed during her personal journey—some which remain constant today. Within her varied poems, Stephanie explores the complex emotions that accompanied her grief after her mother passed away, the battles she has fought within her soul, the anxiety that seemingly appears out of nowhere, the art of penning poetry, the strength she has found in the battles she has faced, and much more.

    Catching My Breath is a volume of inspirational free verse that breathes hope, love, and light into the world.

    Stephanie Chakiryan

    Stephanie Chakiryan grew up on the North Shore of Long Island, New York, surrounded by the waters of the Long Island Sound. The water is where her journey into the world of poetry began as she found this sacred space to be calming and inspirational. When she is not writing, Stephanie enjoys playing tug of war with her Rottweiler, Axel, and spending time with her family and friends.

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.
