What happens when love doesn't end... even after everything is over? In the silence of the mountains, under the pale glow of a full moon, stands a man who has already lost everything that ever mattered to him. The love of his life is gone... but her presence still lingers in every breath he takes, in every memory he tries to escape. He fulfilled the promise he once made to her-revenge. The person who took her away from him... no longer exists. But was it really worth it? Because now, when everything is over, he finds himself standing at the same place where their story once began... completely empty. No reason to live, no one to hold on to-except a promise that refuses to let him die. And then... she appears. Is she real? Or just a fragment of his broken soul? A memory? A hallucination? Or something that never truly left him? A story of love, loss, revenge, and promises that bind even beyond life and death... where two souls remain connected, even when the world tears them apart. Because some love stories don't get a happy ending... they become something deeper, darker... and unforgettable.

A simple story about ordinary people, a bar that shouldn't exist, and a man who shouldn't be alive. All set in a small, run down logging town in Michigan.

When I noticed the man in cubicle 7C, no one else saw him. Not Derek from Accounting. Not Priya from HR. Not the dozens of people who walked past that dead-end corner every single day. But he was there. Navy tie. Gray eyes. Waiting. His name is Luke Grady. He's been invisible for three years. Everything about him erases when no one looks-photographs, documents, handwritten words. The world forgets him in increments. But I remember. And the more I learn about him, the more I realize: I'm not just finding him. I'm finding what I buried.

A collection of raw, unfiltered poetry exploring loneliness, love, loss, and the strange landscapes of the human mind. These poems move through darkness, dreams, and memories - touching on heartbreak, quiet fears, and the fragile beauty hidden in pain. Not every poem has answers. Some simply exist to feel.

Rakkaus ei kuole, kun pelko hellittää. Se vain paljastaa, kuka jää. On hetkiä, jotka muuttavat kaiken. Ja on kolme ihmistä, jotka joutuvat katsomaan toisiaan rehellisemmin kuin koskaan ennen. Joskus rakkaus tarkoittaa jäämistä - joskus se vaatii lähtemistä. • • • Nora palaa Suomeen - omasta halustaan - mutta vastassa on paljon muistoja, joita ei koskaan käsitelty loppuun. Kun yksi hetki pysäyttää kaiken, menneisyys ja nykyhetki törmäävät toisiinsa. Mikään ei enää ole itsestään selvää. Nora seisoo kahden tulen välissä, kunnes keho tekee valinnan, jota mieli ei ole vielä ollut valmis myöntämään. ** Tarina sisältää viittauksia itsensä vahingoittamiseen, päihteisiin ja kuolemaan.

On May 5th, 2005, high school senior Molly Davis is reported missing after a group drug exchange beneath a bridge on the edge of town. What begins as rumor quickly becomes investigation, and in the close-knit community of Milwaukee, suspicion spreads as weeks turn into months with no answers. The last people to see Molly alive were four girls from the school's art club-a few acquaintances bound less by affection than circumstance-who return to their daily lives carrying a secret they agreed never to share. Over the following year, graduation, family pressures, and ordinary young adult milestones unfold alongside mounting guilt and paranoia. Each girl attempts to manage the insurmountable guilt in her own way, until a tragedy within the group forces the full truth into the open.

Hi. If you're reading this, you probably found this book at the right time - or maybe it found you. These poems weren't written to impress anyone. They were written in the middle of real life. In hospital rooms. At work desks. During breakdowns. After arguments. In moments of guilt. In moments of longing. In moments where I didn't know who I was becoming. This is not a perfect love story. It's not a clean healing journey either. It's about childhood wounds. It's about grief and faith that trembles. It's about hurting someone you love and still choosing to stay. It's about wanting to be a mother. It's about questioning yourself. It's about learning your heart is bigger than you were taught it could be. Some poems are soft. Some are confessions. Some are written from places I didn't want anyone to see. But they're all honest. If you've ever felt like the "second choice." If you've ever wanted to be chosen. If you've ever broken and rebuilt at the same time. If you've ever loved imperfectly and still hoped it could survive- You are not alone here. This is my journey. But maybe, in some quiet way, it's yours too. Thank you for being here. 🤍
