The poems touch on key issues such as families, life, love, deception and heartbreak.For instance, the poem I Say, Not Now vividly describes the struggles of a working person, trying to hold out against the daily pressures of life. Other poems such as I said I do address the issues of deception, domestic violence, and betrayal. Kirigua opens her heart to the reader in these poems.

This is the message she brings out in Defiant.
