*A few poems do mention family abuse and self harm*
Echoes of Hope is a journey through many voices - some deeply personal, others imagined, but all rooted in truth.
This collection explores love and heartbreak, healing and identity, faith and injustice.
Each poem is a reflection,
an echo of emotion that lingers -
from the wounds we carry
to the light we learn to reclaim.
These words are for anyone who's ever felt lost, silenced, broken...
and still chose to rise.
This is not just poetry.
This is resilience.
This is growth.
This is hope.

Shattered echoes
When a love that once felt unbreakable fractures, the aftermath is nothing short of devastation. Shattered Echoes tells the story of a girl who thought she had it all-until the boy she loved pulled away, piece by piece, leaving her questioning everything she thought she knew about love, self-worth, and heartbreak. After a passionate and confusing reunion, Tanner's indifference shatters what little hope she had left. As their connection fades, she is left to pick up the broken pieces of her heart and soul. Through moments of confusion, regret, and the cruel cycle of longing, she tries to make sense of the boy who couldn't give her the love she thought she deserved. When a picture with another girl finally pushes her to the edge, the weight of his betrayal forces her to confront the truth-she can't change the past, and she can't change him. But she can choose to rebuild. Shattered Echoes is a raw, unflinching exploration of how love can break us, but also how it can teach us to heal, grow, and rediscover our strength. As the protagonist learns to let go, she comes to realize that sometimes the hardest part of healing isn't moving on from the past-it's learning to move forward with ourselves. Based on a true story between me and my ex which is still continuing to happen.Complete
Echoes of Rejection: Learning to Love Again
Fifty-one rejections. Fifty-one times my heart was broken, including the girl I thought I'd never stop loving. After that, I swore I'd never fall for anyone again. Love became a game I refused to play - every smile, every kind gesture from a girl felt like a trap. Years passed. College came. I buried myself in studies, friends, and distractions, building walls so high no one could reach me. Until she appeared. Aya. Gentle, patient, and fearless in ways I hadn't known existed. She didn't chase me, didn't push. She simply stayed - quietly, persistently, until I realized the walls I'd built were trembling. But trust doesn't come easy. Fear lingers. Past heartbreaks echo. Can I let myself be vulnerable again? Or will my own walls keep me from the love I've always wanted? A slow-burn story of heartbreak, self-discovery, and the courage it takes to let someone in - even when you've sworn you never will.

Echoes and Ashes
Echoes and Ashes is not just a poetry collection it's a reckoning. The author traces a journey through trauma, identity, love, loss, and hard-won resilience. From the raw edge of survival to the steady burn of becoming, Edward Forbes offers verses that are both visceral and transformative. These poems bleed truth. They claw from silence, confront shame, ignite fury, and cool into the embers of hard-earned wisdom. This is not a roadmap. It is proof: That wounds can breathe without being our whole story. That rage can be alchemy. That healing, while nonlinear, is possible. Echoes and Ashes is for anyone who has ever stood in the wreckage of a life and dared to write themselves anew.Complete
