Somewhere Between Friend and Flame is a raw, 150-poem journey through the liminal space between almost-love and self-liberation. Told in five parts, this collection unravels the story of a woman who fell quietly, deeply, and completely for someone who was never fully hers.
With tenderness and teeth, DeJa Jade pens her way through the blurred lines, unread texts, ghosted softness, and aching silences of loving someone. But this isn't just about them - it's about her. The girl who waited. The woman who walked. The version of herself who burned, then rose.
For anyone who has ever loved without being claimed, and still found a way back to their own name - this is for you.

The Patchworks of being alive: a book of short stories
This is not one story, but many. A patchwork of voices and moments stitched together - some soft as a whisper, some sharp enough to leave a mark. Inside these pages, you'll find sadness that lingers like smoke, flashes of surreal wonder that bend reality at its edges, and quiet truths that feel almost too honest to say aloud. There are stories that wander into the strange, poems that breathe between the lines, and a handful of pieces that may stir old shadows. It is a collection for anyone who has ever felt both the weight and the wonder of being alive - the laughter that comes out sideways, the grief that hums in your bones, the beauty that arrives without warning. Weird, light, aching, honest - all of it belongs here.
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

OBSESSION. too personal
This could have been a gentle story for quiet autumn evenings. But it shattered against Morphine - a chapter that will not let you stay indifferent. And now, you'll understand why. This is not a story about perfect love. It's about healing through pain, about love that blooms after trauma, and about the fragile line between salvation and obsession. She is a woman rebuilding herself from the ashes. Not strong - simply real. A mother. A fighter. A writer whose words cut deeper than truth itself. She doesn't want to be someone's muse - she only wants to be understood. He is the man the world worships... and fears. A legend. A symbol of an era. But behind the fame, there's a man haunted by his own darkness. Together, they are fire and gasoline - two broken souls learning how to love without losing themselves. Their story isn't a fairytale. It's an age-gap dark romance about redemption, grief, and the courage to love again. With touch. With words. With silence between the lines.Complete![Closer To You [jikook]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/397961039-256-k458815.jpg)
Closer To You [jikook]
In the quiet spaces between words and silences, they stumble, two fractured souls reaching through the dark. Burnt mornings, tangled nights, and the weight of all the things left unsaid. Love here isn't a gentle flame, it's a storm, fierce and fragile, pulling them closer even as it threatens to tear them apart. This is a story of scars and surrender, of fragile hope whispered beneath broken breaths, and the endless ache of wanting someone to stay .. even when it feels impossible. Closer. Always closer.Complete
And Still, I loved you.
They were never supposed to meet again, but fate had other plans. They were never strangers. They just became people who knew everything about each other, Except how to fix what they broke. She loved him like it was the only thing keeping her from falling apart. He left like he couldn't feel it. Years passed. Cities changed. Names got softer on unfamiliar lips. But silence never erased the way they ended. And when fate threw them back into the same room, One bleeding, Other one breaking, The past didn't knock. It kicked the door down. This is not a story of falling in love. It's what happens after.
