When the World Leaves You Behind
When the World Leaves You Behind isn't here to sugarcoat the truth-it's here to rip the blindfold off. This book is for the ones who have felt abandoned, who have learned the hard way that life doesn't play fair. It's a raw and unfiltered exploration of the realities we all face but rarely talk about. Through a mix of essays, reflections, and poetry, this book will take you deep into the truths that shape us: love that isn't enough, loneliness that teaches, pain that transforms, and the undeniable fact that the world owes us nothing. This isn't a self-help guide-it's a wake-up call. Some pages will comfort you, others will wreck you, but all of them will make you feel.Complete
Him Over Him
TW: this book may contain mentions of SA and other things alike! Read at your own risk! I made this book because I felt the need to share this in some way. I've been quiet and I need to get it out there. I've portrayed myself as this girl, Emily or Emma(forgot the name), who goes through things a teenager shouldn't. I didn't know where to share my story.. So I did it here..Complete
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. In a classroom filled with noise, their glances screamed stories. A slow-burn connection, unsaid words, and almosts that could've been everything. This is not a fairytale. This is a memory rewritten..with the ending she deserved.
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.
