INSIDE ME is an account of Sivu Tshefu's journey from child, to teenager, and into adulthood. Each poem reads as if a breath from Sivu's soul, creatively describing their life at that moment. The poetry is raw and at times crudely honest since Sivu has never been afraid to strip naked in front of Words.

Logan
*TW* Contains topics and scenes of sexual assault, self-harm, abuse.* "You know you loved every second of it," I can feel the tears welling up as well as the anger building up within me. I stare at him for a while before I have to turn away from his hungry gaze. "Look I just came here to tell you that I forgive you for what you did back in Cali and I'll take you back," "You forgive me?" I yell. "I did nothing to you. You raped me! You fucking raped me! You have no right to come here and tell me that. You. Forgive. Me. You traumatized me. What you did to me tore me up inside and was eating away at me until I tried to kill myself. And when I told people they didn't believe me. I had to listen to so many people talk about how great a guy you were and how I clearly just regretted sleeping with you. You are a monster. You made me hate myself for something that was never my fault. You have caused me so much pain and suffering," I pause to take a deep breath. "So you don't get to come here to my school and tell me you forgive me. You don't get to make me feel bad about coming forward. The only thing I regret is ever thinking you were a good person." _____________________________________________ Logan Young is a 16-year-old girl about to start her senior year in a brand new town.

"If you love me, you won't leave me." Jessie has believed those words from her boyfriend, Josh, since senior year of high school. She loves him and doesn't want to leave him. Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation.

But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet.

"Pieces of Me" is a raw and poignant journey through the complexities of love, heartbreak, and self-discovery. The story follows a young boy who, tormented by bullying because of his feminine voice, learns to mask his true self in an attempt to survive the cruel realities of school life. As he grows older and enters high school, he feels the weight of having to conform to societal expectations of having a masculine voice, sacrificing his authenticity to fit in. In his search for acceptance, he falls deeply in love with someone who seems to offer the comfort and connection he's longed for. But this love soon turns toxic, as betrayal and manipulation emerge from the person he trusted most. The emotional and physical abuse he endures leaves deep scars, shattering his sense of self-worth. Despite the overwhelming darkness, "Pieces of Me" is a story of healing. Through the pain, the protagonist embarks on a journey of self-discovery, learning to reclaim the shattered pieces of his heart and identity. It's a tale of resilience, where every scar tells a story of survival, and ultimately, of finding strength in vulnerability. As he pieces himself back together, he learns that true love and acceptance must first come from within. This is a story about reclaiming one's voice, embracing individuality, and discovering that the fragments of our past, no matter how broken, can come together to create something whole.
