Emblem is a collection of not only the most emotionally challenging moments in my life, but it is a cry against all the pain, suffering and indifference in this world.

Anatomy of the Soul
This is me-no filters, no edits, just my soul laid bare in words. Anatomy of the Soul isn't just a collection of poems. It's my way of reaching out when words feel like the only thing I have to give. Here you'll find love and heartbreak, but also the messy, loud, quiet parts of life that don't always get talked about. Social truths, personal struggles, little moments of hope-everything tangled together. This is my art, my ritual, my offering. A place where I explore not just the world around me, but the world inside me. If you decide to step inside, I hope you find something that speaks to your own soul-maybe even gives you a voice for things you've never said out loud. This is poetry for the heart, for change, for us. In the past, my poetry was a way to explore and experiment-sometimes searching for connection, sometimes just trying to understand myself better. Now, with Anatomy of the Soul, it's different. This is my space to be completely honest, to share what I couldn't say out loud, and to write for myself first. Whether these poems find readers or not, they are pieces of my soul I needed to release. And if you do find yourself here, I hope these words bring you comfort, a sense of understanding, and the quiet company of someone who feels like you. This is my truth, my voice, my gift.
"Things I Never Said Out Loud"
These are truths I was never taught to speak. Here lie the words I swallowed, the pain I buried, and the questions they told me not to ask. For the unheard. For the unseen. For the ones who feel too much in a world that tells them to feel less. I write for you. I write for me.Complete
The Cage
A snippet of poetry from my book. These poems aren't just words, they contain raw pieces of my flesh. They carry stories of my love and the sorrow that came with it. These poems carry the weight that I've been carrying on my breasts for decades. My anxiety, frustration, pain, and the willingness to give up. This playlist will also include themes of violence, trauma, captivity, and deprivation of rights. This playlist is messy. Ranking: #14 in distressed #24 in distrust #53 in poetryComplete
LETTERS I NEVER SENT - A Thousand Tender Nights
I grew up in a rural village in Vietnam, in a family where my father struggled with addiction and my mother carried the heavy burden of raising six children. Deep inside, I always longed for a warm and loving home, a father to guide and protect, and a mother to nurture and comfort. As I grew older, that longing shifted into a yearning for romantic love, as my heart began to awaken to its first tender stirrings. The poems I wrote became sparks, small reflections of each stage of my life, each one carrying my search for love. They were poems never sent, born of desires I kept quietly to myself, of feelings that never grew into real relationships. These verses echo my heart, a heart that once held silence, longing, and memory, and now beats with the fire of love. Some were written long before I met the one who awakened me, yet each line carries the tenderness I have discovered in the present. As an immigrant, poetry in Vietnamese has always been my way of breathing. What you read here are my own translations, sometimes imperfect, but always honest. These poems are not just about one person, but about what it means to be alive: to long, to love beyond fear, and to speak from the soul. Now, in my forties, I understand that the image I was searching for was myself. And with that discovery, my love has not faded; it has deepened, becoming steadier and more serene. I no longer search for "him" to give this love away to. Instead, this profound love lives within me, unshakable and whole. In finding myself, I found love.

Art of Letting Go
" Let your heart grief, It's okay. It will heal eventually." Art of Letting Go captures the raw and authentic emotions of moments, a roller-coaster of feelings, and a definition of life to choose not to give up. This book was to give people a chance to relate themselves to the pages and dip themselves with emotions that involve grief, loss, heartache, abuse, and feeling lost in life. A glimpse of these pages may change someone's life by giving them purpose of hope and shed light in the darkest of their hearts. I wrote the "Art of Letting Go" about 3 years ago without an end because I never knew how to moved on from a chapter that felt like a never-ending cycle. I left the story feeling like it was untold. I found hope and my transfiguration in life to help others in search of the light again. In the experiences, challenges, and struggles that I faced over the years, I had to give this book an ending it deserved. We deserve closure, we deserve our voices and stories to be heard and to be told. After 3 years, I came back to finish a story that needed to be closed and a chapter in my life that needed to heal. I realized that I struggled to finish this because there were parts of myself that couldn't heal from the past. I struggled to break free from the pain and it always kept coming back. I was really lost at some point in life and I came back to re-reading my poems and reflected in them. I found pieces of myself, teaching me that I was already in the process of healing all along. I was fighting all this time. I was resilient from all the storms that I've endured. My point is, YOU are too. Whatever you are going through, your storms will wither away and you will find your ray of light again.Complete
Beneath the Surface: Just Some Poetry
A collection of poems by me
into her phenakistoscope
«« when her life was at a halt , an illusion of motion was created and in her dreamlike state , her reality and her imagination met and gave her a blurred vision , her phantasmagoria took birth where her soul saw dreams of a lost world in its sleep »» " Phenakistoscope - an illusion of motion . Into the illusion of motion of a girl's halted world you'll peek into " •This will be a little collection of thoughts that peeped through the glass stained window of my mind , of the memories I lived , and of the tales I participated in inside my mind . These are poetries from a school girl with a backpack on , returning home with so much inside the head , with so much inside her heart , with the memories made each day , with the pain received yesterday , with the questions wondered -whys and whynots , with faces of so many people flashing before her eyes , with words of her people ringing in her ears. • I hope I can reach out to people and make them feel connected and I hope people will help me improve through constructive criticizing. :) If you're reading my pieces, I want to thank you with all my heart from deep down inside to think my pieces to be worth of a read. And,if I'm a lucky soul enough to have earned your liking , please do vote . My sincere thanks to you. Highest ranking till now : #293 on 20.07.17Complete
