Fighting love is one of the most complicated, soul-tangling experiences there is. It's the push and pull between your heart and your pride-between staying for love and leaving for peace. It's loving someone so deeply that you're willing to weather storms, but realizing that sometimes, you're the only one holding the umbrella.
It's late-night arguments filled with silence that screams louder than words. It's begging for clarity but getting confusion, needing closeness but feeling miles apart. It's knowing you care too much, and wondering if they care at all. Fighting love isn't just about yelling or slamming doors-it's about the ache of holding on while love slips through your fingers like sand.
And yet, you stay. Because deep down, you're hoping that maybe this time, they'll fight for you too.

Told in six parts-Before Us, Becoming Us, The Distance, The Ending, After Us, and Becoming Me Again-this is her journey from first glance to final goodbye, and the love she found on the other side of letting go.Complete
Can You Not: A Series Of Poems Written From Memories Of A Semi Hurtful Past
Poems from the heart that encase the emotions of an anxious, panic ridden fifteen year old girl who doesn't really have any experience with real love or heartbreak, but thinks she does. What I've learned from my "experiences" is that we get from a situation what we give to a situation. Even though, yeah, it's fucking hard sometimes to try and get over something or someone, we have to get over it at some point, or else what would be the point of waking in the morning and sleep in the night? There would be no point in anything. So try and beat what you thought was impossible to beat, fight what you thought was impossible to fight, and conquer the sickness you feel inside.Complete
And You Stayed...
She is not cold. She is tired. Ruth has spent so long surviving her own mind that loving someone feels like another responsibility she might fail. She pushes. She withdraws. She convinces herself she is protecting him. Dylan loves without knowing where to stop. He stays when it would be easier to leave. He calls it devotion. He does not realize it is slowly costing him pieces of himself. When honesty finally breaks through, love is no longer soft. It is heavy. It is breathless. It is two people trying not to drown while holding on to each other. "And You Stayed" is not about perfect romance. It is about what happens when love is real but oxygen is not. For readers who believe staying is sometimes harder than leaving.
Fall
When you know each other for so long it's hard not to develop feelings. Feelings that will make you feel like you're floating on a cloud whenever you're with him. The way his voice sounds when he talks to you makes your knees go weak. When he kisses you the whole world pauses and it's just you and him. But when things start to break down, you don't know what to do with yourself. You don't know whether to put your love or your life first. Your mind is just completely foggy.Complete
