This is not a guide.
It is a collection of questions.
These poems unravel the quiet fears we don't say out loud - the fear of being ordinary, of being too much, of not being wanted enough to stay. They trace the space between devotion and self-erasure, between control and collapse, between love and performance.
Through sharp, stripped-down language, this collection explores what it means to grow up believing your worth must be earned - through grades, through beauty, through being "the best one." It captures the hunger to be irreplaceable, the panic of silence, and the fragile hope that maybe existing is enough on its own.
How to Be Enough is not about having the answers.
It's about what it costs to keep searching for them.
