Not Just Words...
Not Just Words... is more than a collection of poetry...it's a raw, unfiltered journey through the landscapes of mental health, vulnerability, and resilience. Blending powerful verses with personal reflections, this book dives deep into the experiences of depression, anxiety, and the quiet battles we all fight within. For anyone who has ever felt lost, overwhelmed, or broken, these poems serve as a voice when words fail. They are a friend for the moments when life feels too heavy, and a source of hope for those searching for light in the darkness. Through every verse, I confront the shadows that have haunted me and, in doing so, invite you to reflect on your own struggles. The emotions here are real...sometimes painful, sometimes healing, but always genuine. This book isn't just a window into my soul...it's an invitation to face your own inner battles, to feel seen, and maybe even understood. How do you describe what it feels like to be human, to hurt, to heal? Maybe you don't. Maybe the words within these pages will do that for you. Not Just Words... is for anyone seeking connection, comfort, and the reassurance that they're not alone.

The Artificial Hero: Viscidity
Do you know what it's like to live your life without control? To be a slave to the desires of another? Minoru did. Every day of his life, the pressure bore down on his shoulders with increasing weight as expectations grew higher and higher. Once there was a time when he wanted the one controlling him to be proud, and even now he still told himself that lie. But in truth, he obeyed out of fear, and the monster born of his suppressed rage simmered below so far down he thought it lost. But the beast would not be so easily forgotten. "You will become a hero Minoru. Even if I have to make you into one myself." Sometimes the world has too many heroes. Sometimes . . . it needs a monster.Complete
