This poetry collection is for those who have wanted to disappear without dying, who have mistaken solitude for safety, who have loved until it hurt and hurt, until it became a language. These poems do not offer escape. They offer witness, fracture, and the quiet, radical hope that nothing, not even ache has to be meaningless, it explores mental illness without softening its edges. Through imagery of dissolution, nostalgia, melancholy, and self-erasure, these poems confront depression, dissociation, intrusive thoughts, and the exhaustion of surviving a mind that refuses mercy. Love appears not as comfort but as pressure, distortion, and harm done in the name of attachment. There is no tidy recovery arc here. Pain is not redeemed; it is witnessed, metabolized, and transformed into language. Readers should be aware that this book contains vivid depictions of psychological distress, self-destructive ideation, and emotional violence. These themes are explored with care but without dilution. The poems do not offer solutions. They offer recognition for those who have lived inside similar fractures and want to see their interior worlds named without being made palatable. This collection is intended for readers seeking honest, dark, and literarily uncompromising work about mental health, where survival is questioned, not glorified, and where simply naming the ache becomes an act of defiance.
