The body remains. The mind floats. Somewhere in between, something waits to wake. A single poem, written from the space between.
A soft disconnection. A haunting stillness. A state without a name, but not without feeling. A poem left behind by the one still searching.

Her moods are unpredictable, her impulses reckless and healing feels like a mountain too steep to climb. She's forced to leave her wild and carefree university student life behind. June struggles to come to terms with her diagnosis. Finding herself living with estranged mother in a quiet and unfamiliar seaside town, where the silence makes everything louder. 𝐎𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞 knows what it means to lose someone slowly, and then all at once. Grief sharpened him into something rough. His tattoos are his armour, humour and charm his defences. He learned the hard way that loving someone sick can destroy you. Together they are a wildfire. Intoxicating and comforting, finding refuge in each other. As their lives collide, the line between love and self destruction blurs. Healing and falling into old pattens are balancing a tight rope. And some wounds refuse to heal quietly.

Two souls meet after long time...their love lost before it bloom...left one with broken heart while other trying to heal it...
Her Phantom
After the loss of her only family, May begins to hear a voice of comfort and support. Convinced Liam is a delusion, she allows herself to be open and honest with him in a way she's never allowed herself anyone else - and pretty soon, she stops caring if he's a delusion or not. Liam, on the other hand, hasn't had someone to speak to in decades since his death - and it doesn't take long for him to start developing feelings for the quirky recluse that he discovered in the graveyard. Two lost souls in a world that's only shown them pain - can they overcome the chasm between them? -- All of my stories feature LGBTQ+ characters: in this novel, the MC is demiromantic!

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
