When trauma suddenly rips her feelings away, she finds herself lost-present, but hollow, echoing the girl she used to be. No amount of love or concern can pierce the emptiness inside her, and every smile is only a mask for feelings she no longer knows. Each day, she perfects the art of pretending, wearing borrowed feelings like borrowed clothes. Yet deep within her,' shell, the faintest spark of hope endures: that one day, warmth will return and she will remember how to feel
"Husk" is a haunting journey of numbness, longing, and the quiet. persistent belief that healing can find us, even when we cannot imagine its return.

Almost, Always 🍁🥀
"Almost, Always" 🍁🌹 Some people enter your life like whispers...soft, sudden, and gone before you can hold on. She didn't expect to see him again. Not after years, not like this. Not when she had finally learned how to forget the boy who never truly left her mind. But fate isn't loud..it's quiet, casual... cruel.

This is a memory rewritten..with the ending she deserved.

In Love With Blindfolds On
I gave the best of myself to someone who didn't have anything to lose. I didn't know how to avoid my lover's toxic and abusive flames. My lover's twisted words were like a maze inside of my head that I couldn't escape. Sadly, my lover's actions hypnotized my thoughts and paralyzed my thinking. I learned the hard way that love isn't leaning in for a kiss, and a fist meets you halfway. Love isn't being a punching bag because someone decided they wanted to beat on you today. Love isn't saying I love you just because someone wants to keep you to themselves. I tried to be there for my lover, but I learned it is impossible to fix the broken pieces when the glass has shattered. There will always be pieces that are not repairable. However, I kept going right back to the person who I needed to walk away from. I was afraid, and I wasn't brave enough to wake up from this nightmare! I made the choice to suffer when life is meant to be lived and enjoyed. Will I find the courage to know my worth and know that I deserve better than the distasteful lies that are whispered in my ears? Will I have the strength to fight my insecurities? Will, I set myself free, or will I let my love be the death of me?Complete
