    This memoir tells the story of growing up in a home shaped by neglect, abuse, and survival. From early illness and isolation to being forced into adulthood far too soon, this book traces the experience of a childhood where safety was never guaranteed and love was conditional. Walking home alone, caring for siblings, enduring physical and emotional harm, and learning to stay silent became part of daily life. Even after escaping that environment, the impact remained. Loss followed, grief accumulated, and healing proved to be anything but simple. This is not a story of easy recovery, but of endurance-of learning how trauma lives in the body, how silence can be as damaging as violence, and how survival can become both a strength and a burden. Told with honesty and restraint, this memoir is about what it means to survive when you had no choice, and how learning to live afterward can be just as difficult as staying alive.

    Have you ever met someone so sugary sweet it made your teeth ache? The kind who offers support in public and silence in private. Who gives advice that sounds wise, until you realize it was a setup? You tell them something vulnerable, and it comes back to you with the edges sharpened. At first, it feels like friendship. You're seen. Heard. Included. Then the shift happens. The red flags don't scream. They blink quietly. A silence in the group chat. A glance that doesn't hold. Your seat gets filled with saccharine words and tight little smiles, all said just loud enough for you to hear. You back away. They don't take it well. At first, it's subtle. Whispers. DMs that "accidentally" leak. Inside jokes that aren't jokes. A cropping of screenshots. A twisting of tone. They don't block you. They rewrite you. Suddenly, you're the villain in a story you didn't write. The warning label on their feed. The monster behind the mute button. And the worst part? People believe them. Because the ones who weaponize kindness always know how to smile while they sharpen the knife. Yeah. Welcome to my world. Some of you have lived this. Some of you are still trying to recover from it. And the rest of you? You're just lucky I finally decided to speak.

    Eighteen is a raw, gut-punch of a poem about the naïve rush into adulthood, the way you think you're grown at eighteen, only to find out the world hits harder than you ever imagined. It captures that mix of innocence and harsh reality, tracing the hidden bruises of trauma and the haunting weight of years that follow. Vulnerable, honest, and unflinching, it's a piece meant to make the reader pause, ache, and maybe even cry.

    ON HOLD! A girl silenced by her own blood. A king wounded by a love that once betrayed. She was cast away for speaking the truth, left to drown in a world that never listened. He had locked his heart behind iron walls, ruling a kingdom with ice in his veins and fire in his past. But fate does not knock softly. It crashes, collides, and weaves two broken paths into one. She, with her trembling voice and stubborn spark. He, with his guarded soul and eyes that never forget. In the deserts of Modhpur, where silence echoes louder than words- a story begins. Of pain. Of healing. Of rebellion against everything they were told to be. And of a love that doesn't arrive like a storm... but like a whisper that refuses to leave.
