The book's structure into three sections - "What It Is to Persevere," "What It Is to Live and Love," and "What It Is to Be Free" - allows the poet to explore deeply personal themes of struggle, love, and liberation.

Leon-Gonzalez skillfully wields poetic devices and imagery to pack an emotional punch without needless complexity. The metaphorical use of "truth" to convey resilience in "Truth Stands" is one striking example.
