Four reasons
it lands.
Words for the feeling you can't name.
The lines you'll screenshot and send at 1am, because she said it better than you could.
Short poems, whole worlds.
Read it in an afternoon. Return to it for years. Nothing here is padded.
The full arc, not just the ending.
The wreckage, the anger, the 3am scrolling, and the morning you finally choose yourself.
Written during, not after.
Not looking back from safety. That's exactly why every line lands where it does.
You're not being dramatic. It really did hurt that much. These poems don't rush you toward healing — they sit with you in the middle of it.
What they say.
i read it in one sitting and cried four times
Every poem felt like she'd read my texts. I finished it in an afternoon and immediately started again.

gifted it to my sister and she called me crying
In a good way. She said it was the first thing that made her feel normal for how much it hurt.
