After the Fall by Luna Kirikit is a heartfelt collection of poetry and prose about what happens after falling in love.
It explores the quiet moments that come once the initial spark fades-the comfort, the doubts, the little struggles, and the small joys that make up real relationships. Luna's words capture the everyday reality of keeping love alive, even when it's not perfect.
The book touches on themes of trust, vulnerability, and growing together through ups and downs. Luna writes about the beauty in ordinary moments and the challenges of staying committed. She shows that love isn't just about the exciting beginnings but also about sticking through the tough times and finding strength in the little things.
More than just about romance, After the Fall also reflects on self-love and learning to care for your own heart. Luna's simple, honest style reminds us that love is found in the everyday, imperfect moments that are worth cherishing. It's a gentle and relatable read for anyone who has ever loved, lost, and is trying again.

Not Just Words...
Not Just Words... is more than a collection of poetry...it's a raw, unfiltered journey through the landscapes of mental health, vulnerability, and resilience. Blending powerful verses with personal reflections, this book dives deep into the experiences of depression, anxiety, and the quiet battles we all fight within. For anyone who has ever felt lost, overwhelmed, or broken, these poems serve as a voice when words fail. They are a friend for the moments when life feels too heavy, and a source of hope for those searching for light in the darkness. Through every verse, I confront the shadows that have haunted me and, in doing so, invite you to reflect on your own struggles. The emotions here are real...sometimes painful, sometimes healing, but always genuine. This book isn't just a window into my soul...it's an invitation to face your own inner battles, to feel seen, and maybe even understood. How do you describe what it feels like to be human, to hurt, to heal? Maybe you don't. Maybe the words within these pages will do that for you. Not Just Words... is for anyone seeking connection, comfort, and the reassurance that they're not alone.
The Catalyst (WIP)
This is not a redemption story. This is the unraveling of a mind built to survive, a life that refused to break until it did, and a woman who has never been just one thing. Told through fractured memories, relentless introspection, and the weight of choices that were never choices at all, this book explores the paradox of existence-what it means to offer without sacrifice, to be unbreakable by breaking, and to see the universe while knowing it will never truly see you back. A story about inevitability, identity, and the battle between Chaos and Order-within the world, within others, and most of all, within yourself. Trigger Warning: This book contains discussions of trauma, abuse, mental illness, suicidal ideation, and the brutal realities of existing in a world that demands you be something you are not. Read with care.

What Could This Be, Between You & Me?
Some love stories are meant to be simple, but theirs was anything but. Sol never imagined that love could be something he would dread-until he crossed paths with Ember. She embodied warmth and fire, a sanctuary and a tempest, and he found himself captivated by her like a melody he never wanted to end. However, love was a concept Ember had long abandoned. The scars of her past had left her too wary to trust, too hesitant to hope. As their lives intertwine, they discover comfort in one another, yet the very bond that unites them also threatens to tear them apart. Friendships fracture, fears emerge, and the silence of unspoken words becomes a heavy burden of regret. When the shadows of the past finally close in, they must confront a question neither is prepared to answer: What could this be, between you and me? A profoundly emotional and strikingly honest journey of love, loss, and self-discovery, What Could This Be, Between You and Me? is not merely a tale of falling in love-it's about learning to fight for it.
This is a story about me. I loved, and I lost. Everything I could gather from the fragments of my memories, emotions, and reflections, I've poured onto the pages of this book.
