i'll never be a poet
and here's the pretentious proof an ongoing anthology of the poetry of nobodi.
Tangled Hearts | 18+
[BOOK 1] What they have is messy, reckless, and impossible to walk away from🦋 ************* Lily Garcia didn't come to university looking for love-especially not with someone like Finn Brooks. He's charming, infuriating, and a walking complication she doesn't need. But no matter how hard she tries to keep her distance, there's something about him that feels like gravity, pulling her closer with every encounter. Beneath his cocky exterior, she senses the fractures he tries to hide-the same ones she's been running from her entire life. Finn's been through hell, and love isn't part of the plan. He's good at keeping his walls high, locking out anyone who might get too close. But then Lily shows up, and suddenly his carefully controlled life begins to unravel. She's everything he didn't know he was missing, and that scares him more than he's willing to admit. But with their pasts threatening to destroy what they could be, and old friends trying to drive a wedge between them, trust becomes their biggest hurdle. And when a new love interest steps into the picture, everything Lily and Finn thought they were building starts to fall apart. Fighting their demons was never supposed to include each other, but now they have to decide if the risk of heartbreak is worth the reward of finally letting someone in.Concluida![𝐄𝐃𝐔𝐂𝐀𝐓𝐄 𝐌𝐄 [𝟏𝟖+]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/370565937-256-k970397.jpg)

౨ৎ [𝐍𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐓 𝐌𝐈𝐋𝐋𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐀𝐈𝐑𝐄𝐒 #𝟏][𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐀𝐋𝐎𝐍𝐄] ౨ৎ He's the one man who could ruin her future. She's the one temptation he can't resist. In the quiet, gossiping corners of small town Grantford, Pennsylvania, secrets are hard to keep and even harder to survive. Rose Winward has fought for every inch of her education. Between two jobs and a hard-earned scholarship at Darwin State, she's months away from the finish line. She has a plan, and it doesn't include distractions―especially not the gorgeous, silver-tongued professor standing at the front of her lecture hall who's twelve years older than her. Professor Roman Whitlock is everything he shouldn't be: dominant, alluring, and completely off-limits. As the heir to the university's biggest donors, Roman is used to the rules not being for him. But even he knows that Rose is a line he shouldn't cross―not when a single scandal could rock the town and destroy her future. From the moment their eyes meet, the air sparks with a dangerous hunger. One touch could cost Rose her scholarship. One reckless night could cost Roman his career. But in a town where everyone is watching, the "wrong" choice has never felt so right. In this game of forbidden desire, are they willing to risk everything for a love that could burn them both? ✎ 📈 HIGHEST RANKINGS: ☻ #1 in #university | 12/02/2024 ☻ #1 in #goodgirl | 03/13/2025 ☻ #1 in #forbiddenromance | 01/23/2026 ☻ #1 in #student | 01/24/2026 ☻ #1 in #teacher | 01/30/2026 ☻ #1 in #rich | 02/08/2026 ☻ #1 in #steamy | 02/28/2026 ☻ #1 in #maturethemes | 05/14/2026 ☻ #1 in #waitress | 06/08/2026 ✎ 🚨 PLEASE READ THE DISCLAIMERS/CONTENT WARNINGS/TROPES PAGE.

If You Let Me
Chloe has always been good at handling things on her own. Until she isn't. Within months, she loses her job, falls behind at university, can no longer afford her rent-and ends up on the doorstep of the last person she ever expected to ask for help. Finn has known Chloe his whole life. He knows exactly how stubborn she is, exactly how badly she hates needing anyone, and exactly why letting her stay with him is a terrible idea. Because somewhere between late-night study sessions, shared breakfasts, and a kiss that changes far more than either of them intended, the girl he grew up with becomes the one person he can no longer keep at a safe distance. But Chloe isn't the only one who has spent years pretending she's fine. Finn carries a loss he has never stopped blaming himself for-and the closer Chloe gets, the more convinced he becomes that loving her can only end one way. Chloe is finally learning that accepting help doesn't mean giving up control of her life. Finn will have to learn that loving someone doesn't mean he is destined to destroy theirs. And this time, neither of them can do the hard part for the other. IF YOU LET ME is an interconnected standalone in the People We Choose series.

The Hairdresser Diaries
For Tatum, love has always been something to keep at a distance. It was easier and it was safer. As an independent young woman, she is content to enjoy a life split casually between friends and her career. Her life changes one night when by chance she meets the mysterious Cole and finds herself irresistibly drawn to him. Almost instantly he leaves a lingering impression on her that is so perfect it's terrifying. Soon she isn't sure what she wants and finds it impossible to get him off her mind. It's everything about him. It's the scent of him that lingers, the closeness of his breath, the slightest touch of his skin and the blue of his eyes that makes her very soul ache. The last thing she wants is to admit to love and the inevitable complications that come with it. But it isn't long before her inability to reconcile what her heart wants sends her life spiraling out of her control and she becomes trapped in a dance of giving in and running away. Before two people can share their lives, they need to face their past.Concluida

Stop 4921
This is a story, a story that makes sense to tell, one that leaves me nostalgic. An event that is so different and new, yet so familiar, one that makes me question a lot, about everything. I can never seem to logically wrap my head around this one, it is certainly special. A moment I doubt can ever be replaced. It started with him. She did not know his name or anything really concrete about him, but she watched and she felt. That was enough for her to know him for a lifetime.
