[ poetry/short stories/collection ] ❝ you made the truth into what I lied, and I lied that I was beautiful ❞ . . . a collection of rainbows, theories, and dreams, of words faded around the edges with meanings that nothing could ever fade. a collection of seashells and nostalgia, sand filled baseball caps, scraped knees and bleeding hearts, colorless colors, stories of the lost and the found, and times when we are lost at sea. © 2021 @uranium-girl february 23, 2021 - march 18, 2021Complete
Loudspeaker
'... are my words enough?' Many themes and issues run through this collection, interwoven with each other, knitted between poems, so much so this is less of a collections of poems more of a continuous narrative. When I write, I'm constantly inspired. Imagery, characters and metaphors present themselves to me, I don't ever desperately start searching for them. The main inspiration for 'Loudspeaker' was the young people speaking up for what they believe in and fighting for the world they deserve. In their activism, they've taken the issues of today's world and used their voice to turn it into art. To turn the inequality into something empowering, hopeful and genuine. Art mirrors life, so 'Loudspeaker' is about the exact same thing. Finding your voice and creating light in darkness. Written between July and December 2020Complete

Bikes, Beaches and Afternoon Waffles
Chloe Morgan is almost your average teenager - if you ignore the sarcasm, the pessimism, and her talent for pushing people away before they can leave her. Determined to survive the rest of summer break with her new foster parents, Chloe plans to keep her world small and her expectations even smaller by not getting too attached to anyone or anything. That is, until she unexpectedly meets Casper Collins: a quirky boy who loves bike riding, beaches, and waffles - only in the afternoon. As Chloe and Casper stumble through summertime shenanigans, awkward moments, and new adventures, something begins to shift. Chloe begins to learn that healing isn't about leaving the past behind - it's about finding the courage to ride forward, step into the water, and stay for waffles. In this romantic coming-of-age story, Chloe and Casper navigate the fragile space between laughter and heartbreak, friendship and family, childhood trauma and mental health - and what it truly means to be alive.
The Sun And The Stars •completed•
Audrey Kepler wants to breathe, to run, to live. It should be a given, after all, a gift everyone receives at birth. The day she gets on the bus is the day she finally admits to herself that being alive and living are two separate things. And Audrey wants to live. When she meets Eli Davis, a mysterious, quiet, and timid boy, she assumes that they are opposites. But, they are more similar than she could have ever imagined. Eli wants to live, he thinks. He at least wants to taste what it's like before he decides. She was the sun; warm, bright, radiant, and full of the purest light. He was the stars; distant and scarce, yet fascinating and effervescent if you took the time to look closely enough. They seem so different at first glance, the sun and the stars, but they are just alike.Complete

To Reach for the Moon
Where the heavenly bodies that are the Sun and Moon don't move. Where there is no conception of time, where the term day, months and years don't exist. A story of hope where hope seems lost. Where the world is split into six different regions, governed by the sun to the west, and governed by the moon to the east. Where children are born to be placed into divisions. Born to be either a producer, Born to be either a breeder, Born to be either a defender, Where humanity is plagued by waves of shadow-like demons born by the moon, working tirelessly to collect the delicate orchids that exist inside. Perri wakes in her Granja, awoken by her sister to become a defender. Her life goes a route never fathomed. Tragedy of her birth, Tragedy of deaths. She carries her sword so that tomorrow might be a better day.Complete
Hurt Beyond Repair.
Hurt and frightened and no where to turn except for my journal. Curse words being streamed at me and you would have thought I had a father for a sailor. ~E.M.C Many poems focusing on the subject of Mental Illness, that many suffer with and the subject just isn't brought up enough. Poems focusing on a day in the shoes of a person with a mental illness and how some even ordinary simple tasks may seem not so simple to them. There may be some uplifting poems but also raw ones filled with real emotions, things I've experienced. \\ Notes from me the poet: Some aren't all poems I guess you could say but these are my feelings and maybe some of you can relate :) feel free to comment or message me with any questions, feedback or suggestions I greatly appreciate anything!Complete
