"For the hearts that have been shattered and the voices that are finally ready to be heard."
Unlearning You is not just a book of poetry; it is a visceral reclamation. Through raw, minimalist verse, and moody imagery these pages track the transformation of a spirit once lost in the fog of a toxic past. It is a slow burn toward freedom- an honest look at the scars we carry and the power we find when we stop apologizing for the intensity of our own light.
The journey begins in the burn, unravelling a past that was as exhilarating and lust-filled as it was toxic. It explores the dangerous high of an unhealthy love and the inevitable wreckage left in its wake. From there, the collection lingers into the ash, that heavy, visceral space where heartbreak takes root and longing remains like a ghost. It is the quiet ache of missing what destroyed you and the struggle to find footing in the ruins. Finally, the shadows give way to the wings. This final movement is the realization that you were never truly broken, only forged into someone stronger and wiser. It is the moment of clarity where the weight of blame is finally set down. It is an awakening of self-love and the freedom of a spirit ready for flight.
Whether you are navigating the heavy aftermath of a fire that nearly consumed you or standing tall in your own light on the other side, you will find pieces of your own story reflected in these lines.
