Fragments of Bleeding Ink is a raw and intimate collection of poetry that delves into the depths of the human psyche, exploring themes of pain, healing, and self-discovery. Through fragmented verses and bleeding lines, it gives voice to the silent struggles of mental health-touching on anxiety, depression, trauma, and the quiet battles fought within. This book is for those who seek connection in vulnerability and beauty in brokenness. There are wounds the world rarely understands - the kind carved by depression, anxiety, and all the unnamed storms that gnaw at the mind. I've walked through those fires. I've felt their weight. I've faced the shadows they throw at the walls of a life. But I did not suffer quietly. My voice never went missing; it spoke through the tremors, through the dark, through every moment I refused to be swallowed. These fragments were never meant to be pretty; they were meant to be honest. Born from shaking hands, sleepless nights, and a heart trying to relearn its own rhythm. Ink became the one place where I could breathe, where I could break and rebuild without apology. This book belongs to anyone who has felt their mind turn into a battlefield; to anyone who has stood in a quiet room and heard their thoughts roar; to anyone who has searched for an exit, a pathway, a meaning - and found none. It belongs to those who are still trying, still searching, still fighting for breath in a place that offers none. Somewhere in the ink, I hope you find a mirror - not to glorify the struggle, but to remind you that surviving it, speaking through it, even when the world looks away, is its own kind of courage. Take what you need from these pages. Leave what you don't. And remember: healing never demands perfection - only persistence. Welcome to Fragments of Bleeding Ink. These words bled through me, but they were written for you.

Aurie Suarez looks like she has everything figured out. Online, her life is carefully curated - soft smiles, morning skies, coffee cups, and captions about growth and gratitude. She's admired, praised, and envied. People tell her she's strong. Successful. Lucky. But between the likes and the silence, Aurie is quietly falling apart. Behind closed doors are unanswered questions, crushing expectations, and a loneliness she doesn't know how to explain-let alone admit. Every "I'm okay" is a lie she's learned to say too well. Every post hides a truth she's terrified to share. As the pressure builds and the cracks begin to show, Aurie is faced with a choice: keep living as the version of herself everyone loves, or risk losing everything by finally being honest. Between Likes and Silence is a story about invisible struggles, the weight of pretending, and what happens when being seen online doesn't mean being known at all.

Today is my birthday, but it doesn't feel like one. Sleep was scarce, my chest is heavy, and the world feels distant, rushing past while I exist in a quiet bubble of numbness.

My dog, breathing steady beneath my legs, reminds me to exist. Messages from someone I care about - a smile across a screen - flicker warmth in the gray. Peanut butter sandwiches, sips of water, quiet moments of grounding - these are my celebrations, my proof that I am still here. This is a birthday of survival, presence, and honesty. No forced joy, no expectations. Just life, as it is, in all its heavy, quiet, grounding beauty.
