Overview

She speaks in poems that sound like decisions. This book follows a woman who has stopped negotiating with her own heart. Through spare, luminous verses, she names what she wants from life without apology: a life that fits, and joy that is earned and unguarded. She writes of solitude as something chosen, not endured, and of desire as a compass rather than a weakness. When she turns toward love, the language sharpens and softens at once. She does not ask to be rescued or completed. She asks for presence. For curiosity. For a partner who can stand beside her without shrinking or crowding, who knows how to listen without trying to solve, who meets her fire with warmth instead of fear. Love here is not fantasy. It is mutual effort, shared silence, laughter at the wrong moments, and the courage to grow in the same direction. This collection is a map of becoming. It is about wanting clearly, loving deliberately, and choosing a life that feels like home. A book for anyone who has learned that longing, when spoken plainly, can be an act of self-respect
