how to: get over your first love
write a book about your experience with heartbreak
--
1. "You are like the wind
Sometimes here, sometimes not
Maybe I ought
To have known that now
Is the time you aren't"
2. "I'm running out of things to say
Please just come back and stay."
3. "I'm finally closing this chapter
I'll always love you,
But I'll never be in love with you again."
4. I am leaving this up as a permanent reminder
To never go back to you.

Almost Love
They say your first love is never really your last. It's the one that teaches you how much your heart can hold-and how easily it can break. It's the feeling you never expect but somehow always remember. It doesn't come wrapped in perfection. In fact, it's often messy. Loud. Complicated. Full of silent stares across classrooms and text messages that say "goodnight" when you really mean "don't leave." This is not a love story with a fairytale ending. This is a story about two teenagers who didn't know how to love yet-but tried anyway. About a girl who had just transferred to a new school, carrying quiet sadness in her eyes. About a boy who joked too much, talked too loud, and hid his softness under layers of laughter and chaos. It's about the teasing. The almosts. The missed chances. The apologies that came too late. The good days that felt like forever-and the bad ones that felt like drowning. Most of all, it's about that stage in your life when you love with everything, even when you don't know what love is yet. This is the story of Adriana and Liam. Of how they found each other. How they lost each other. And how sometimes, loving someone first... doesn't mean loving them forever.Complete
Haven's Knight (Sample of Published Book)
When I was a little girl, I believed in fairy tales. I believed in princes and princesses and knights in shining armor. I believed in forever and happily ever afters. I was ten when reality hit me. My mom brought the evil home with her and there was no escaping it. That's when I learned that fairy tales were just that: fairy tales. The bad stuff is real, though. The difference is that I now know that the monsters and evil villains don't always wear capes and ugly scars. No: most of the time, they appear normal. I'm drowning in reality, in my life, and I've given up hope that a knight in shining armor will rescue me. But maybe... maybe I don't need a Prince Charming after all. Maybe a knight without the shining armor and a broken smile will be enough to save me. *Please note this is only a five chapter sample of the published book.Complete

In Love With Blindfolds On
I gave the best of myself to someone who didn't have anything to lose. I didn't know how to avoid my lover's toxic and abusive flames. My lover's twisted words were like a maze inside of my head that I couldn't escape. Sadly, my lover's actions hypnotized my thoughts and paralyzed my thinking. I learned the hard way that love isn't leaning in for a kiss, and a fist meets you halfway. Love isn't being a punching bag because someone decided they wanted to beat on you today. Love isn't saying I love you just because someone wants to keep you to themselves. I tried to be there for my lover, but I learned it is impossible to fix the broken pieces when the glass has shattered. There will always be pieces that are not repairable. However, I kept going right back to the person who I needed to walk away from. I was afraid, and I wasn't brave enough to wake up from this nightmare! I made the choice to suffer when life is meant to be lived and enjoyed. Will I find the courage to know my worth and know that I deserve better than the distasteful lies that are whispered in my ears? Will I have the strength to fight my insecurities? Will, I set myself free, or will I let my love be the death of me?Complete
