What if I told you this book isn't meant to fix you-just to sit beside you, when no one else does?
And What If I Die? Or Leave Without a Trace is a bleeding collection of unsent letters, midnight thoughts, and survival confessions.
Written for those who are barely holding on.
For the ones who keep quiet while the world gets loud.
For those who were left, forgotten, or grieving something that no one else seems to notice.
It's about the pain you can't explain.
The kind that lives in your bones.
The grief that stays even after the funeral.
The questions you ask God when you're too angry to pray.
The friendships that faded.
The love you didn't get to say.
The you that disappeared when no one was looking.
This book won't hand you a happy ending.
But it will hold your hand through the mess.
And maybe, just maybe, remind you:
You're still here.
And that matters.
If you're looking for hope that doesn't sound fake-
For words that feel like they were written with your voice-
This book is yours now.

CAUTION: I DID NOT PUT MATURE ON BUT CONTAINS SENSITIVE TOPICS OF ABUSE INCLUDING S/A... & probaly some swearing. There will be disturbing sh*t in here. This book is a poem book of my life pretty much. Its my thoughts and emotions spoken in a different suppossed to be more emotional and deeper way then just looking at what happened and crying about it. What happened can never be fixed but I won't let those people go by un-noticed and I hope karma sincerely kicks them in more then the ass someday. I don't wish pain upon no one but I do crave for them to just UNDERSTAND what they made me feel since they all walked away without a scrape, just a smirk on all their faces in the end. Or they're narcassistic. Theres also letters to people who I still think of to this day that will probably never read them but you guys still hold a special place in my heart. This book is letters and poetry to all; people of my past, present, future, and not only just SURVIVORS but WARRIORS too. You're never alone my loves... Welcome to : "Message Not Delivered"Complete
The Girl He Left Behind
She had loved him since she was a child - quietly, faithfully, hopelessly. When their families arranged their marriage, it felt like fate had finally heard her secret prayers. He was everything she had dreamed of - gentle, grounded, and hers at last. Until the day a bank robbery tore their world apart. He was taken hostage. She walked into danger to save his life... and disappeared from his world. Months later, she returned - scarred, broken, but alive. Only to find the man she had risked everything for no longer remembered her. Worse, he was getting engaged... to someone else. In a world quick to judge and forget, she chose silence over shame. But love has a strange way of finding its way back - even through forgotten memories and broken hearts. "The Girl He Left Behind" is a story of love that endures beyond memory, of courage, forgiveness, and the quiet strength of a woman who loved too deeply to demand to be remembered.Complete
THE EDGE OF NINETEEN(19)(EDITING)
"Some stories aren't just written-they're survived." Heaven never planned to fall apart quietly. Nineteen was supposed to be her year of survival. Instead, it became the year everything unraveled-family, friendships, and the walls she built around her pain. Diagnosed with BPD, trapped between silence and screams, and carrying scars she thought no one could love, she was certain the world had forgotten her. Then came Chase-gentle, persistent, and painfully human. What began as an accidental connection in a library became the lifeline she never knew she needed. This is not a love story in the way you expect. It's about healing in slow, aching pieces. It's about therapy sessions, midnight breakdowns, found family, and daring to believe in something softer. It's about what happens when you stop surviving and start living. And maybe, just maybe-find someone worth fighting your way back for. Raw. Real. Relatable. If you've ever been on the edge of something-grief, love, adulthood, or your own mind-this book is for you. ---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
Life as it is
She doesn't talk about it not out loud. Not the childhood stolen behind closed doors. Not the nights that blurred into silence. Not the years of shame, of pain, of pretending to be okay. But on the page? She tells the truth. In this deeply personal and soul baring collection, a young woman traces her path through a lifetime of abuse, betrayal, and grief-and the quiet, aching journey of healing that follows. Through poetry, she unearths the stories she's never spoken aloud, giving voice to the trauma that shaped her, and the strength that's carried her through. Each poem is a heartbeat. A scar. A step forward. Sometimes backwards. But always hers. Living. Breaking. Surviving. Healing. This is not just her story. It's the story of anyone who's ever felt broken, unseen, or unheard and still chose to write themselves into the light.Complete
