This is a short story\poem about a male who finds a female in the middle of a volatile protest. He hadn't been exposed to real world problems yet and She was lost in them. He needed Her so He could grow up and She needed him to remind her that She was young and allowed to have fun. How does one find their true identity in a world filled with idealism, hive-minded peer pressure, and political differences? Sometimes you need a stranger to make you feel a little less strange about who you are.

The sound of Her Becoming
It is the story of Raina-a quiet girl with a loud heart-unfolding her voice in a world that taught her to whisper. When silence becomes too heavy to carry, Raina begins to write, speak, and ultimately live for herself. Through lost dresses, whispered poetry, and the wild ache of choosing freedom over certainty, she finds family in friends, love in unexpected places, and courage in saying "not yet" to the things she's not ready for. From kitchens lit by soft rebellion to gardens glowing with birthday candles, this is a coming-of-age story wrapped in rhythm, quiet defiance, and gentle victories. It's about growing, leaving, and the beautiful audacity of not waiting to be ready before you begin. *A story for the soft-spoken, the slow-blooming, and everyone who ever needed to become their own permission.* *"I'm stepping into the world as a new author-my voice is fresh, my story is raw, and all I ask is that you give it a read before you decide."*Complete![The Us I Thought We Were ↹ [Poetry]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/105475365-256-k773453.jpg)

A young woman who was always the life of the party, quick to tell a joke, always smiling and happy, tragically dies at age 23. What her mother found after her death reflected a much different young woman, her poetry. Her words showed a young woman crying out to feel loved, wanted, beautiful and worthy. Struggling to accept herself as the wonderful, happy, beautiful young woman everyone else saw her as. Her words reflect the pain and torment she allowed another to cause her. It is her mother's most heart felt desire to reach even one young person struggling to accept themselves. To encourage them to open up and talk to someone, to know they are never alone, to know their feelings are validated. She also hopes to reach a mother that perhaps feels her daughter is perfect and completely in charge of her life, as mothers often do. After reading her poetry, hopefully it will facilitate conversation, confirm unconditional love and help to end words that a mother never hears. I am her mother and these are her words.Complete
