Details: A raw manifesto for anyone who has ever raged, doubted, or dreamed.

When the Light Is Mine is Chaz Holesworth's debut poetry collection, a piercing blend of social critique and intimate confession. These poems confront the machinery of capitalism, the weight of organized religion, and the toxic myths we're sold about money, power, and worth. At the same time, they cut deeply into personal the spirals of depression, the false promises of antidepressants, the ache of unfulfilled dreams, and the immaculate discovery of real love in an age of carefully curated personas.



Holesworth writes with a stream-of-consciousness urgency, transforming private struggles into universal truths. Whether he's dismantling corporate lies or excavating the wreckage of self-loathing, his words refuse to look away.



As the pages turn, shadows give way to glimmers, proof that even in poverty and disillusionment, moments of clarity still break through. By the end, one question

When the light is finally yours, what will you choose to see?



Blending contemporary poetry, social commentary, and confessional verse, When the Light Is Mine speaks to readers of modern poetry collections about mental health, love, and resilience. This collection explores modern society, grappling with capitalism, faith, identity, depression, and survival before closing the collection on a hopeful note by exploring moments of true tenderness and connection. This is poetry for readers who resonate with introspective, socially aware, and emotionally honest writing--a collection that challenges, unsettles, and ultimately uplifts.
