Life experiences
I've been through my own struggle, whether it was created in my head by way of prolonged sadness or bitterness/resentment, or if I was struggling with things I had no control over like failed friendships, a broken heart, or family drama. This is my advice to you based off of my life experiences. Along with pieces of life experience advice I've included poetry and spoken word pieces from different perspectives and I try to break down life into beautiful words that people can relate to and see that we all struggle- you're not alone and we are each so valuable.Complete

constantly blooming.
'i will never stop blooming, like an eternal rose of flame... i may have my times of smolder and small sparks, but i will always become a huge inferno in the end... and nothing can stop me.' Collection of poetry and prose between the ages of 10-15. Almost completely in order, so don't be deterred from the first couple of weird poems. I was trying to find myself through writing during that time. WARNING: I don't edit any of them. These are completely raw. Highest Ranking: #365 in Poetry EDIT: completed! May make another themed poetry book soon. I added an easter egg in the very first poem, using the SoundCloud plug-in (p.s. I made the song ;)Complete
Poems (collection 2.0)
"Thoughtful, often sad, and angry poems. It's an outlet. A way to be heard. Not genius; only jumbled messes of the multitude of my thoughts fighting their way out of my brain. There's so much I want to say, but not enough time to say it. Here are my attempts." (Poems, collection 1.0) the best of my poems I've written during the years 2017-2021, (all from the original Poems book), revised, edited, and occasionally renamed - and when I say best, I don't mean good, so... go read my other poetry - the ones with actual titles. cataclysmic is comprised of poems inspired by (but generally drastically different from) the poems from this collection. there's a fair bit of rhyming in this one though, and it's not too bad - if you're into that.Complete

Trinkets
If you want to read without the commitment, this is the perfect book for you. You can open it and read a few excerpts once in a while, or you can read it in one go. The entries here have various themes which may confuse readers as it confused the writer to complete it. Check out Miscellanea, the second book inspired from the last entries of Trinkets. A collection of prose and poems, of rhymes, and riddles, and a piece of a shattered heart. "...Now this collection is bleeding with those memories. And I want you to understand. I want you to know what happened. I want you to feel every emotion that I felt. Flip the pages and understand. It could take some time. But believe me. Those days felt like it could last forever, too." -Summer (2016)Complete

Eternal Embrace: A Love Through the Ages!
Meera: "Do you remember the first time we met? Back in school, when you stole my pencil just to get my attention?" Aarav: "I didn't steal it-I borrowed it indefinitely. It was my excuse to talk to you every day." Meera: "And yet, it took you years to finally confess that you liked me." Aarav: "Hey, I had to make sure you liked me too! And you did, didn't you?" Meera: "Of course, I did. From childhood friends to first crushes... It all feels like a dream now. Our late-night phone calls, those stolen glances in college, our first awkward date." Aarav: "Our first fight too. You were so mad at me for forgetting our anniversary." Meera: "Because it was important! But you made up for it with that handwritten letter... That was the moment I knew you were the one." Aarav: "Not when I got down on one knee and proposed?" Meera: "That too. But marriage wasn't always easy, was it?" Aarav: "No, it wasn't. Balancing careers, raising our children, the struggles, the losses... But through it all, we never let go of each other." Meera: "Even when we were exhausted, even when we argued, you always held my hand at night. That's what mattered." Aarav: "Because you were my home, Meera. You still are." Meera: "And now, after all these years, we've seen our children grow, watched them start their own families. And yet, here we are, still just Meera and Aarav, like we were in our twenties." Aarav: "Except with a few more wrinkles and a little less hair." Meera: "Oh, stop it! You're still the same boy who made my heart race." Aarav: "And you're still the girl who stole mine. Even in our 60s, in our 80s, my love for you never faded. If anything, it only grew stronger." Meera: "We've had a beautiful life together, haven't we?" Aarav: "The best. And when the time comes... we'll go the way we lived. Side by side, in each other's arms." Meera: "Together. Always."Complete
