A collection of poems written between heartbreak and obsession, hunger and devotion, fear and longing. These are the words I never said out loud - the ones that kept me awake, the ones that buried me seven feet beneath myself.

Who are we between the person we were and the person we are becoming? This collection is a dissection of the self-a deep dive into the stagnant corners of the mind, the fear of freedom, and the haunting question of what remains when we feel we've lost our soul. It's a map of the internal landscape, charting the quiet battle between the reckless past and the numb present.

A poetic story about the weight of silence, the ones who leave, and the ones left to carry it. If you're struggling: you're not alone. Help is always there for those who ask.

"Because the words spoken can never be taken back, and the words sealed within my lips have no place to be wondered about." "But isn't that where the magic of pen and page comes in? With gentle fingertips upon paper, you have the power to unleash every word kept secret within you-silently and securely." ____ Swimming through her mind and heart were countless thoughts and phrases longing to escape.
