About this ebook
This is a poetry collection about love, family, friendship, mental health, grief, and growth. Written by a 17-year-old, this book captures the simplicity of love, the pain of watching the one you love choose somebody else, the struggles of being raised by a narcissist and a childhood of gaslighting, what it’s like to be screwed over by friends and the people who once promised you forever. The rawness in these simple words makes them so easy to be resonated with.
