Things I Felt for You, Them, Everyone, and Everything by Lauren Gil

An anthology of poems with feeling about lovers, family, and society.

Things I Felt for You, Them, Everyone and Everything is a raw and deeply personal collection of poetry that captures the harsh transition from girlhood to womanhood. Lauren Gil navigates the complex landscape of human emotion, ranging from the tender warmth of a mother's love to the biting sting of a father's neglect.

Structured like a journey of growth, the collection moves through twenty distinct reflections that tackle the heavy unseen or ignored realities of modern life: patriarchy, body image, spiritual frustration, and the haunting "what-ifs" of a life not yet lived.

This anthology is for the dreamers, the survivors, and the young women who are learning that they are more than a pretty face, they are a force to be reckoned with.

A special thank you to Ms. MoGo, Dr. Louis who inspired me to publish this, my mother for putting up with my crazy ideas, and to everyone who has came into my life and shined it to the max.
