THE GIRL WHO OUTGREW HER HURT
"The Girl Who Outgrew Her Hurt" is my story in poems. I was the quiet girl with a soft heart, hard thoughts, and hidden pain. The one who smiled while healing, loved while breaking, and kept everything inside. This book is for the ones who feel too deeply, overthink at night, and keep going anyway. It's about heartbreak, friendships that faded, missing people who didn't stay, and finding myself in the mess. I wrote every poem from the truth I carry - soft, bold, and still becoming. This is me, outgrowing what tried to break me.Complete
Fragments Of A Shattered Dawn
A collection of raw, unfiltered poems that bleed with honesty. Inside these pages live the ghosts of depression, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, heartbreak, abuse, and grief. These words do not shy away from darkness-they sit with it, speak its language, and unravel the silence it leaves behind. But this is also a book about survival. About longing and love, even when unreturned. About desire that aches and healing that comes in imperfect forms. About the messy, jagged ways we try to piece ourselves back together. For anyone who has felt too much, or nothing at all. For anyone searching for fragments of themselves in the ruins. This is not a guide to healing. This is proof you are not alone in the storm. Trigger Warnings: Depression Self-harm Suicidal ideation Grief and loss Emotional and psychological trauma Abuse (emotional, physical, and implied sexual) Dissociation Heartbreak and unrequited love Loneliness and isolation Sexual themes and longing Descriptions of pain and intrusive thoughts
Her Absence Hurts Louder
He used to believe that love could heal anything-until the day it couldn't save her. Evan's world shattered the moment she was gone. What used to be laughter-filled days turned into echoes of memories he can't silence. Every place reminds him of her, every silence screams her name. But as he drowns in grief, he discovers secrets she left behind-truths that make loving her even more painful, and letting go, impossible. This is not just a story of losing someone you love. It's about the kind of silence that hurts more than words- and the love that lingers even after goodbye.

WHEN THE RAIN FORGOT TO FALL
I wrote this because I needed to survive it. Because there are some feelings too big for silence. Some heartbreaks too heavy to carry alone. This isn't fiction. This is my heart, broken open and rearranged into verse. "I saw you standing where the sidewalk curves, and suddenly my chest knew different words." - That's how it started. A glance. A stranger. A feeling I couldn't ignore. "You said we needed to talk. Those five words, I knew. I already knew." - And that's how it ended. Not with fire. With silence. I won't tell you that time heals all wounds. I won't say everything happens for a reason. I won't pretend heartbreak makes you stronger. But I will show you that: You can survive what you think will destroy you. You can break and still become beautiful. You can love someone and lose them and still be whole. You can be your own happy ending. I wrote these poems with tears on my face. I wrote them on good days when I forgot to hurt. Every word is something I actually felt. Every line is a moment I actually lived. "You are not broken. You are breaking open. And that's where the light gets in." - That's what this taught me. That's what I hope it gives you, the comfort of knowing you're not alone.Complete
My final goodbye
A powerful blend of memory, heartbreak, mental health, and self-expression through pain. It's to be raw, reflective, and emotionally gripping. By Angie This is not just a love story. It's a story of unraveling. the pages of her heart to reveal a journey shaped by love, abandonment, trauma, and transformation. What began as soft, innocent memories with a first love laughing by rivers, sharing midnight drives, holding hands like nothing could go wrong slowly collapsed into coldness, confusion, and emotional silence. I write about a boy who once made her feel seen, (or so I thought) and the boy who later treated me like a a dark cave, in the end the quiet devastation of feeling like an option, the ache of being misunderstood, and the mental toll of loving someone who couldn't or wouldn't love me back in the way I wanted it to be. Later finding out I was never loved for 3 years out of the 7,a waste of time This is a raw account of mental health battles, delusions mistaken for hope, and the long nights where survival didn't feel certain. It is also a tribute to the very people who broke me, their actions became the ink in my pen, their rejection the reason I found my voice. Through poetry, memories, journal entries, and intimate reflections, I will readers into the messy middle of my heartbreak and healing. I don't sugarcoat the pain. I honor it like a degree hooked on the wall, And by doing so, even the deepest wounds can give birth to art, and even shattered people can build something beautiful from the pieces. For anyone who has ever lost themselves in love, for anyone who stayed too long, for anyone who is still learning to let go You aren't alone.Complete
One Shot Stories
As MissLovelyTales, I write one-shot stories that dive into the raw, unfiltered emotions we often try to hide - love that never reached the lips, heartbreaks masked with smiles, and the lingering "what ifs" we carry in silence. Each piece I create is a glimpse into the fleeting moments that leave the deepest marks on our hearts. My stories aren't always about happy endings. Sometimes, they're about quiet goodbyes, unsent letters, and the beauty of moving on. I write for the overthinkers, the feelers, the ones who love in silence and heal in secret. Every one-shot is a universe in itself - short, but heavy; simple, but striking. And I hope that through my words, you find parts of yourself... and maybe a little peace too.Complete
