In a world that mistook vulnerability for weakness, she wore her ruin like a crown-each crack in her spirit gleaming like gold, each scar a testament to battles survived, not lost. She didn't love softly-no, she loved like a storm: wild, relentless, uncontainable.
There was fire in her tenderness, a rawness that terrified the shallow and comforted the broken. She was not for the faint-hearted-she was a force of nature wrapped in human skin. The hope in her did not whisper; it roared. It clawed its way through the darkness, fueled not by calm, but by fury. And though her heart bled with every betrayal, it kept beating-loud, fierce, and full of light.
Her love was not perfect, but it was real. And in that love, there lived a revolution.
Writing is a terrifying act of creation that requires us to push past the fear of being known and bare our souls to others. It gives us a glimpse into our multifaceted lives, both as writers who share their stories and as readers who bring their own unique experiences to what they read. Writing serves as a beautiful connection to each other and our world. This collection of poetry and prose is intended for those of us who feel we have lost our connections and sometimes feel a little less than human because of it.
