I'll hold out hope on all things perfected
Because the thing I fear most is being dejected
And what helps the world go down the mind smooth
Is finding someone like you to help wear down a groove
This ones for the happy, the strong willed, the hopeful
This book is healing for dreaming and being playful
And like always maybe a little sad
It's good for you; keeps you on your toes
Love, David Yager

"Things I Never Said Out Loud"
These are truths I was never taught to speak. Here lie the words I swallowed, the pain I buried, and the questions they told me not to ask. For the unheard. For the unseen. For the ones who feel too much in a world that tells them to feel less. I write for you. I write for me.Complete
Embers and Petals
In Embers and Petals, the quiet fragments of healing meet the gentle art of self-acceptance. Through fifty deeply personal and reflective chapters, this book takes readers on a journey of rediscovering themselves-where pain becomes the soil from which strength blooms, and where even the smallest ember of hope can ignite transformation. Each page blends poetry and introspection, unraveling the beauty hidden within flaws, heartbreaks, and silent battles. Embers and Petals is not merely a story of healing-it's an embrace for every soul learning to rise from ashes while carrying the soft grace of petals.
Resilience
I never planned on telling my story. Truth is, I've spent most of my life holding it in, swallowing the pain, laughing off the shade, putting on a mask when deep down I was fighting battles no one could see. But the older I got, the more I realized silence can eat you alive. And if I don't tell it raw and unfiltered, then who will? This book isn't polished for perfection. It's not sugarcoated, it's not dressed up to make anyone comfortable. It's me, The struggles, the lessons, the laughter, the embarrassing moments, the heartbreaks, the love, the shady comebacks, the nights I thought I wouldn't make it, and the mornings I woke up ready to fight again. I named this book Resilience because that's exactly what my life has been about. No matter how many times I was knocked down by people I loved, by family pressure, by toxic love, by my own mistakes, I got back up. Bruised, maybe. Bitter, sometimes. But never broken. So if you're holding this book, know this is, you're not reading some perfect fairytale. You're stepping into my world. One filled with chaos, comedy, culture, love, and pain that shaped me into the person I am today. And maybe, just maybe, you'll find pieces of yourself in these pages too. This is my story. Raw. Real. Resilient.
