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
"Things I Never Said Out Loud"
These are truths I was never taught to speak. Here lie the words I swallowed, the pain I buried, and the questions they told me not to ask. For the unheard. For the unseen. For the ones who feel too much in a world that tells them to feel less. I write for you. I write for me.Complete
The Cage
A snippet of poetry from my book. These poems aren't just words, they contain raw pieces of my flesh. They carry stories of my love and the sorrow that came with it. These poems carry the weight that I've been carrying on my breasts for decades. My anxiety, frustration, pain, and the willingness to give up. This playlist will also include themes of violence, trauma, captivity, and deprivation of rights. This playlist is messy. Ranking: #14 in distressed #24 in distrust #53 in poetryComplete
The Weight We Carry
Every heart holds a story, and every story leaves a weight behind. The Weight We Carry is a living collection - written in real time, in the middle of survival, burnout, healing, and trying again anyway. These poems come from the spaces between responsibilities: grocery aisles, late nights, applications, shifts, side hustles, and the quiet moments when everything finally catches up. This collection explores the ache of memory, the exhaustion of caring too much, the frustration of broken systems, and the complicated reality of choosing to help when it costs you something. There is grief here, and anger, and dark humor. There is healing, but it is not linear. Hope shows up when it can, but it doesn't pretend to fix everything. Through raw, unfiltered verses, The Weight We Carry holds space for the people who keep going without applause - the helpers, the burned out, the ones trying to build something better while still carrying their own survival on their backs. These poems are for anyone who has felt the weight of the world press down and kept moving anyway. Not because it was easy. But because stopping was never really an option.

The State Of Blissful Misery
Strong and explicit language. Triggering topics. For mature audience only. Poetry exploring the darker side of the enfactions one crosses. Embracing the malevolence. Let the light slip through you as you enter the world below you. Be unafraid of what it has to offer to you. See the warriors who fight alongside you or slay the ones who rebelled against the one thing that would have saved them. As always, I will be editing the collection every now and then. I am unstoppable. Not even death can rip editing my poetry from my dead hands.
