[ A VERY Slow-Burn, LGBT+ Soulmates Romance ] Dylan Matthews never wants to meet his Soulmate. So, when the inevitable finally happens, he expects to continue his life of obscurity, alone. Instead, he gets an awkward waltz of self-reflection, resistance, and lots of sarcasm. And hugs. ~ In a world with Soulmates, Dylan Matthews does not share the rose-coloured glasses everyone else does; he never wants to meet his Soulmate. Mercilessly mocked for his Glow anyway, he's content with his life of pushing people away, wishing he could be a writer, and keeping his head low at his job as a website coder. The problem: he doesn't get to decide if they meet or not, so it becomes a matter of waiting so he can outright reject them. One work trip and a blackout later, Dylan cannot escape his Soulmate no matter how far he runs; he works with them. He's ready to push them away, but can't. Something inside him, along with the dreaded Glow Feeling, wants to see this crash and burn on its own. Yet mistake after mistake, Dylan finds himself in an awkward waltz with someone just as broken as he is. Will Dylan push his Soulmate away, or will the New Soulmates heal their pasts? ~ "The Soulmate System" is the set of 31 combined rules, sub-rules, and overarching themes that determine who, how you will find, and live with, your Soulmate, starting with a simple coloured Glow from your chest... ~ All rights reserved.

A book encompassing my brain. Filled with poems, sketch stories and everything in between.

poetry for the hearts tarnished by love or the sudden death of it. for the hearts that find a soft lullaby in the pages when raw hope is not enough to put the worries to sleep. for the hearts that bleed ink to paint the chalky roses of life red with words--you'll find my own ink here. and i hope you find a harlequin garden in my poetry. sweet lavender. daybreak lilies. sun-kissed dahlias. a poem for every emotion ripping at your soul, begging to be unleashed on paper. this collection has several themes and ideas--find something you like. let's get lost in the tall fields of dawn's first breath and dandelion song, tucking flowers in the forests of our hair. let's get lost in the words and not in the world. for a moment, let your tarnished heart out of its cage, and hold it to your sleeve. wear it proudly as you read. just for a moment. to feel something and let it be shown. there is nothing shameful in having a heart that has dented-in chambers and rust. it has seen the salt cries of the ocean, the metronome kisses of summer rain, the moonlight tears that have dried into scars on cheeks. it's been corroded by the waters, tarnished. it is not afraid. well that was some pretentious shit. i hope you enjoy this collection. love ya <3 more of my works: "poems for you. always for you." is one of my older poetry collections that is slightly cringe but feel free to check it out. "let me shape you into words" is where you can make a poem request, and i'll write something up! this lovely cover was created by: @lifebytheseashore (go follow her!! she makes awesome covers, writes stunning poetry, and more) #1 in "originalpoetry" Aug. 2, 2021 #1 in "teenpoetry" Aug. 19, 2021 #1 in "poetess" Aug. 22, 2021 #1 in "mypoetry" Aug. 22, 2021

❝i've delicately chosen letters to form words and words to form sentences, each sentence a colorful paint stroke on the canvas of my mind.❞ [ #1 in poetry on 27/08/16 ]
