There are loves that burn, and loves that heal -
and somewhere between the two, we learn how to begin again.
"Where the Light Finds Us" is a collection of poems about love's quiet afterglow - the spaces between endings and becoming, the soft strength that grows from heartbreak, and the moments when light still reaches us, even through the smoke.
In these pages, fire becomes a language of survival.
Silence becomes a form of peace.
And love - no longer something to endure - becomes something that returns home to the self.
Each poem stands as both confession and reclamation:
a girl made of flame learning to trust her own warmth,
a goodbye written in salt and tide,
a heart learning to listen for the light that never left.
Because healing doesn't happen all at once.
Sometimes, it happens in the quiet -
where the light finally finds us again.

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
When Love Finds You
Ana thought survival was the best she could hope for. At eighteen, she leaves behind poverty in Romania to marry a wealthy American man promising safety and comfort. But what begins as rescue quickly becomes captivity-bruises hidden under silk, silence rewarded, and freedom slowly stripped away. Then Elise walks in. Warren's ex-wife is everything Ana was told not to be-confident, self-possessed, and devastatingly kind. What begins as curiosity becomes late-night texts, secret poems, and an impossible, tender love that rekindles Ana's will to escape. But wanting Elise means risking everything. And Warren doesn't give up control without a fight. Told in raw, lyrical first-person, When Love Finds You is a story of survival, sapphic longing, and the slow, defiant reclaiming of a stolen life. 💔 Abuse. 🔥 Longing. 🌹 Healing. 🖤 And a love story that refuses to be quiet.Complete

The Shadow of Comparison
"Growing up in someone else's shadow taught me one thing: finding myself was the hardest-and most beautiful-journey of all." School was supposed to be easy-a place to learn, laugh, and grow. But for her, it quickly became anything but simple. 🌿 Everyone around her seemed brighter, bolder, better. Every whispered compliment, every small success she didn't have, made her question herself. Slowly, the shadow of comparison began to follow her everywhere. Then college arrived-bigger, more dazzling, and full of surprises she never saw coming. Friendships that challenged her, choices that tested her, and moments that made her heart ache in ways she didn't expect. Could she navigate this new world without losing herself? From quiet school corridors to late-night reflections, from self-doubt to self-discovery, this story is about growing up, facing unexpected twists, and finding the courage to step out of the shadows. If you loved "The Goodbye We Never Said," you'll recognize the familiar struggles and heartfelt moments-and maybe even find yourself rooting for her as she learns to shine in her own light.Complete
