Being mentally unstable means you have multiple masks, whether you want to or not. They all become apparent when it involves:
Love
Pain
Happiness
Sadness
And many more
Writing has always helped distinguish which mask I was wearing at the moment.
This book displays all of which I've worn.
Hope you like it

Reasons to live
When I can cry - In the middle of the night - In my bed, hiding under the covers - At funerals - At the graveyard - During sad movies - Never in public The design on the notebook is so pretty, too pretty, just like her, it reminds me of her. I wonder how much longer I can live wearing this mask, day and night, until it finally slips off, revealing the broken mess underneathComplete

Poems for the Broken Hearted #Wattys2017
Heartbreak is one of the most painful experiences this life has to offer. It's an ache that slowly kills your delicate heart. This book is a book of poems and notes from me, the author, to help you. These are sad, these will make you cry, these will remind you of you're pain, of your loss. But I find that being reminded of these things helps you get over them. So if you like poetry and you like reading poetry and relating to heartbroken experiences then read this book. But always remember, it'll get better. It will get better. I promise you this. *****NOTE****** I didn't write all these, most I wrote, some are song lyrics, some are ones from friends, some are ones from the internet. So if you recognize a few then don't get mad. I should also warn you that these passages may trigger you.Complete
One Thousand Tears
I've tried to release this pain in so many different ways; But writing about you seems to be one of my faves. I don't understand how I find closure When I know it only lasts until the poem is over. Somehow it feels like some sort of imaginary relief to my reality. As if, the pain I feel only exists until the words are free. I know how crazy it may seem Because the heartbreak will always be there; And I will never un-feel what you've done to me.Complete
The Pieces of You
If you really want to know the pain and heartbreak you put me through, this is for you. I know you will never want to know what you did to me. It's easier for you to just forget about it and act like it never even happened. Unfortunately I cannot forget. Here's everything anyway, for my sake. #11 in poetry #1 in heartbreakpoems #1 in poems #1 in sadpoemsComplete

Composed Pieces of My Heart (Poetry Collection)
"A soft heart like the pattern of life, beautiful memories to live by..." A collection of pieces of poetry that I composed with my heart over the years. From all about love to heartbreak, to death and grief, and scattered diversities. I'm just one of many or thousands. This isn't just some simple poetry. This is a kaleidoscope of creativity, deep thoughts, wonders, truth, and stray words created into poems, all wrapped into one collection. This is my book of poems; composed pieces of my heart. *Complete, but may add new pieces here and there when new pieces are written or if an old piece I'd written growing up is found, it will be shared.* Award Mentions: *Round 3 Qualifiers Part 2 in the Amby's 2025 Contest*Complete
Fragments Of A Shattered Dawn
A collection of raw, unfiltered poems that bleed with honesty. Inside these pages live the ghosts of depression, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, heartbreak, abuse, and grief. These words do not shy away from darkness-they sit with it, speak its language, and unravel the silence it leaves behind. But this is also a book about survival. About longing and love, even when unreturned. About desire that aches and healing that comes in imperfect forms. About the messy, jagged ways we try to piece ourselves back together. For anyone who has felt too much, or nothing at all. For anyone searching for fragments of themselves in the ruins. This is not a guide to healing. This is proof you are not alone in the storm. Trigger Warnings: Depression Self-harm Suicidal ideation Grief and loss Emotional and psychological trauma Abuse (emotional, physical, and implied sexual) Dissociation Heartbreak and unrequited love Loneliness and isolation Sexual themes and longing Descriptions of pain and intrusive thoughts
