Poetry Books for Young Adults

As young adult’s we have all struggled with different hardships and a lot of us connect through words, so here is a list of poetry books for young adults. All very different but at the same time very similar. Heartbreak, lost loved ones, anxiousness for the future, confusion, and trying to understand day to day life and our purpose. I feel like these books below will touch some part of your soul, if you are going through something now or you have before. Take some time to really let yourself feel and enjoy these works of art.
