Preface
I began writing this collection of poems, short narratives, and stories as a form of escape. There were countless times when I felt alone and overwhelmed by depression, wondering where the years had gone and how I had fallen so far behind in life. Writing became my therapy—a way to process my emotions and find encouragement amid my struggles.
This collection is deeply personal, but my hope is that it will resonate with someone out there. If you’re feeling lost or alone, I want you to know that you’re not. These pages are a reminder that even in the darkest moments, there’s a shared humanity that connects us all.
